Answer:
As a tectonic plate slides into the mantle, the hotter layer beneath Earth's crust, the heating releases fluids trapped in the plate. These fluids, such as seawater and carbon dioxide, rise into the upper plate and can partially melt the overlying crust, forming magma. As the magmas are lighter than the mantle and start to rise above the subduction zones to produce a linear belt of volcanoes parallel to the oceanic trench.
