Solution

To determine which diagram shows the plate movement that forms trenches, we need to identify the type of tectonic plate boundary associated with trench formation.

  1. Type of Plate Boundary: Trenches are typically formed at convergent boundaries, where one tectonic plate is being subducted beneath another.

  2. Visual Indicators: Look for diagrams that depict one plate descending below another. This will usually involve an oceanic plate subducting beneath a continental plate or another oceanic plate.

Without seeing the specific diagrams, I can’t specify which choice (A, B, or C) correctly represents this process. However, refer to the criteria above to choose the diagram that visually represents the convergent boundary with subduction leading to trench formation.
