When oceans plates collide with continental plates the denser ocean plate does what?
sinks
How do volcanoes form were oceanic and continental plates collide?
When oceanic and continental plates collide, the denser oceanic plate subducts beneath the continental plate. This subduction causes melting of the mantle, creating magma that rises to the surface, forming volcanoes on the continental plate. The magma eventually erupts through the volcano, leading to the formation of volcanic islands or mountain ranges.
When plates collide with continental plates does the denser ocean plate sink?
Yes, it "dives" under the continental crust and back into the mantle.
What happens and what forms when 2 continental plates collide?
When two continental plates collide, they can form mountain ranges due to the intense compression and uplift of the Earth's crust. This collision can also lead to the formation of earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. Over time, the collision can result in the merging of the two continental plates into a single larger landmass.
What land feature will occur when two plates collide during continental - continental convergences?
folds
What happends when 2 plates carring continental crust collide?
When two plates carrying continental crust collide, the continental crust is too light to subduct beneath the other plate. Instead, the plates crumple and fold, leading to the formation of mountain ranges. This process is known as continental collision.
