I really want the answer to Question 5. Question 6 would be appreciated.

At which plate boundary is more viscous lava found? Hotspots Subduction zones Divergent plate boundaries Continental rift zones Which of the following is FALSE about magma? Some magma comes from rocks melted through decompression. Adding volatiles, such as water, decreases a rocks melting point and makes it easier to melt. Some magma comes from melting mantle material that rose from the core/mantle boundary. Tectonic plates move around over a deep ocean of magma.

Explanation / Answer

5) subduction zone

magmas at subduction zones are generally more viscous than any other. the downgoing slab will release the water and other fluids onto the mantle wedge. this addition of fluids will decrease the melting point of rocks and leads to the partial melting and production of silicic magmas

6) d

tectonic lates move around on top of the asthenosphere,.
