What is a major type of stress that occurs at convergent plate boundaries?
Compressional stress.
What 2 major land formation occurs at convergent boundaries?
mountain ranges and trenches
Why are volcanic chains associated with convergent boundaries?
partial melting occurs due to subduction.
Is subduction divergent?
Subduction is a process that takes place at convergent boundaries.
Which plate boundary occurs as continental crust collides with continental crust?
Convergent plate boundaries.
What type of movement occurs at plate boundaries?
Convergent,Divergent, and Transform Boundaries
Do convergent plate boundaries involve the process of rifting?
No. Rifting is associated with divergent boundaries.
What is a major type of stress that occurs at convergent plate boundaries?
Compressional stress.
Evidence of plate movement occurs at plate?
Plate boundaries
A what fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary?
reverse
What 2 major land formation occurs at convergent boundaries?
mountain ranges and trenches
Why are volcanic chains associated with convergent boundaries?
partial melting occurs due to subduction.
Is subduction divergent?
Subduction is a process that takes place at convergent boundaries.
What is a crustal boundary?
There are 3 types convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries. Convergent collide, divergent move away, and transform boundaries occur when two boundaries pass each other horizontally. The process of subduction is associated with convergent boundaries and tectonic plates play a huge role in these types of boundaries.
What kind of stress occurs at a converging boundary?
Compressional stresses occur at convergent plate boundaries.
Which plate boundary occurs as continental crust collides with continental crust?
Convergent plate boundaries.
Why does oceanic crust dive underneath continental crust?
This process is known as subduction and occurs at convergent plate boundaries because oceanic crust is denser than continental crust.
