these boundaries are formed when two plates collide. When the two plate bump one plate is absorbed in the mantle of the other. Heat and pressure when these plates collide causes volcanoes and earthquakes.

Earthquakes are as old as time. Earthquakes are the continental plates colliding and failing to keep straight, pushing one plate over the other and shaking the ground.
because the tectonic plates are moving beneth the earths crust, colliding with each other. if someone live along one of these fault lines between the plates they would experience a large earthquake.
The earth's crust is made up of several huge plates called techtonic plates. They move, probably energized by heat vectors coming up from the core. When two plates collide, mountains are formed at the colliding edges. Usually one plate is forced down under the other, lifing the other up.
sliding,seperating,and colliding plates and tectonic plate . Tectonic plates are the one which cause earthquakes
Two plates colliding and one being pushed upwards is called subduction.

tectonic movement can cause tectonic plates to collide, drift apart, or slide across one another
That depends on the section you are looking at. Along much of California the plates are neither colliding nor separating, but sliding past one another. Along the southern coast of Alaska, they are colliding.
In a way one does, however instead of sinking it stoops below forming volcanoes. And you would not sink due to the speed of the tectonic plates colliding
Tectonic Plates
The colliding plate edges become crumpled to form a mountain range.

Volcanoes are caused by the rising of magma in the earths mantle and earthquakes are caused by the colliding of the earths tectonic plates against one another.
