What are the mountain ranges that were created when the Indian plate collided with the Asian plate?
The collision of the Indian plate with the Asian plate created the Himalayas, Karakoram, and Hindu Kush mountain ranges. These are some of the highest and most geologically active mountain ranges in the world.
Which one is not a volcano formed by subduction Mt Fuji Mt Rainier The Himalayas or Krakatoa?
The Himalayas are not formed by subduction. They are the result of the Indian tectonic plate colliding with the Eurasian plate, causing the uplift of the mountain range. The other options (Mt. Fuji, Mt. Rainier, and Krakatoa) are associated with volcanic activity resulting from subduction processes.
This plate boundary usually forms mountains due to colliding plates?
A convergent plate boundary typically forms mountains when two tectonic plates collide, causing the leading edge of one plate to be forced upward and form mountain ranges. This process is known as orogeny and can result in the creation of large mountain systems such as the Himalayas.
What mountain range was formed as a result of 2 continents colliding?
When oceanic plates collide with continental plates, The oceanic plate goes under the Continental plate, creating friction deep in the earth, where the plates are rubbing against each other, creating magma, which rises to the surface and creates volcanic mountain ranges. The Andes mountain range is an example. I don't know if this will help you at all.
What plate collision would result in the formation of the most extensive mountain range?
The collision between two continental plates would result in the formation of the most extensive mountain range. When two continents collide, the continental crust buckles and folds, leading to the creation of large mountain ranges such as the Himalayas.
Complex mountain systems such as the Himalayas?
are the result of continental-continental convergence (:
Mountain systems such as the Himalayas are the result of?
Continental-continental convergence
Where what is the worlds tallest mountain range and how did it form?
It's the Himalayas - although "mountain" questions are more complicated than might be thought as there are underwater mountains. The Himalayas, in brief, are the result of the Indian plate pushing into the Asian plate forcing up the Himalayas.
What are the mountain ranges that were created when the Indian plate collided with the Asian plate?
The collision of the Indian plate with the Asian plate created the Himalayas, Karakoram, and Hindu Kush mountain ranges. These are some of the highest and most geologically active mountain ranges in the world.
The mountain range extending along the northern frontier of India was formed as the result of a collision of the Indian subcontinent and what other continent?
The Himalayas.
What mountain ranges was not the result of continental-continental convergence Himalayas Alps Appalachians or Andes?
The Andes mountain range was not formed as a result of continental-continental convergence; instead, it resulted from oceanic-continental convergence. Specifically, the Andes were created by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South American Plate. In contrast, the Himalayas, Alps, and Appalachians are primarily the result of continental-continental tectonic interactions.
Which one is not a volcano formed by subduction Mt Fuji Mt Rainier The Himalayas or Krakatoa?
The Himalayas are not formed by subduction. They are the result of the Indian tectonic plate colliding with the Eurasian plate, causing the uplift of the mountain range. The other options (Mt. Fuji, Mt. Rainier, and Krakatoa) are associated with volcanic activity resulting from subduction processes.
What mountain ranges were the result of continental-continental convergence?
Some examples of mountain ranges created by continental-continental convergence are the Himalayas (resulting from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates) and the Alps (formed by the collision of African and Eurasian plates).
This plate boundary usually forms mountains due to colliding plates?
A convergent plate boundary typically forms mountains when two tectonic plates collide, causing the leading edge of one plate to be forced upward and form mountain ranges. This process is known as orogeny and can result in the creation of large mountain systems such as the Himalayas.
Which mountain ranges was the result continental continental convergence?
The Andes
What created the Himalayan mountain range?
It is caused by the Techtonic plate on which India sits colliding with the techtonic plate to its north. This process is still going on and the Himalayas are still increasing in height as a result of it.
