neither plates are pushed under the other.
converge
when two plates converge it is called plate tectonics?
lithosphere plates collide forming the folded mountains!
Convergent tectonic plates are plates that are moving toward each other.
Yes.

Convergent tectonic plates are plates that are moving toward each other.
Yes.
Folded mountains are created when plates are bent, squeezed and stretched.
When two continental plates converge, it results in formation of high mountains such as the Himalayan mountain.
Compression stress from other tectonic plates squeeze the plates, causing it to buckle in the center, and for mountains to form.
Convergent features:Are similarities that do not indicate relatedness
Fold mountains are formed from the collision of continental tectonic plates. Since neither plate subducts under the other, the colliding plates wrinkle and fold like a rug being pushed into a wall.
Folded mountains form when two plates move towards each other by compressional forces. The movement results in sedimentary rocks moving upwards to form a series of folds.
It forms folded mountains
