Are oceanic plates measured in seismic waves?
\No
What mountain is oceanic oceanic?
An ocean mountain is a mountain that is completely underwater. If measured from sea level, it would have a negative height.
Convergent boundaries can be divided into 3 categories what are these categories and what geological feature are created by each?
The categories are a continental and a continental plate colliding, continental and oceanic plates colliding, and oceanic and oceanic plates colliding. The two continental plates form mountains. The continental and oceanic plated colliding cause subduction zones and volcanoes. Oceanic and oceanic plates colliding form a trench.
How are mountains formed when a plated with an oceanic crust meets one with a cnotinental crust?
The oceanic plate is more dense than the continental plate, and will subduct, or move underneath, the lighter continental plate. The result is that the continental plate is uplifted. As the oceanic crust goes deeper and deeper, the temperatures become higher, causing the subducting crust to eventually melt into the mantel. The heat and gas pressure from the melting of the subducting crust may eventually seek release in the form of a volcano. The rate of crustal movement is slow, measured in a small number of inches per year, but the volcanism and crustal uplifting and folding eventually create mountains.
What is oceanic plates?
it keeps the ocean and valcanos away from each other i think

Is Japan continental continental oceanic oceanic or continental oceanic?
Oceanic-Oceanic.
What does sub-duction mean?
Oceanic subduction is a plate with oceanic crust sinking under another plate with oceanic crust.
What is an example of convergent boundary oceanic-oceanic?
an oceanic trench
What is an example of a oceanic oceanic convergent boundary?
an oceanic trench
Is oceanic oceanic convergence?
oceanic convergence is when two oceanic plates subduct beneath one another.
Differences between oceanic-oceanic and oceanic-continental subduction boundary?
Oceanic to oceanic- one plate sinks under the other Oceanic- Continental ocean crust sinks under the other
What is oceanic and oceanic?
The continental crust is the land. The oceanic is under the ocean.
Where are the oceanic oceanic plate located in what countries?
Oceanic plates, underpin the OCEANS.
