    Answer: convergent plate boundary

    Explanation: when a plate capped by oceanic crust is subducted under a continental lithosphere an accretionary wedge and fore-arc basin forms an active continental margin between the trench and the continent. the magma that is created by ocean-continent convergence forms a magmatic arc the surface expression of a magmatic arc is either a line of andesitic island such as Aleutian island.
