Which outcome follows high-angle subduction overriding denser lithosphere?

💡 Explanation

Increased crustal deformation occurs, because high-angle subduction maximizes compressional forces on the upper plate, causing greater buckling and faulting through horizontal shortening, rather than arc volcanism or slab rollback which characterize different subduction geometries.
