Convergent Boundary is a result of two tectonic plates colliding. Divergent boundary is the process where to tectonic plates move away from each other. if two tectonic plates move away from each other (diverge), each will collide with another plate (converge) on the opposite side of the divergent boundary, forming a convergent boundary with another tectonic plate.
The boundary between plates is called a plate boundary, which is where tectonic plates meet. These boundaries can be divergent, convergent, or transform faults, and are characterized by various geological activities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building. Plate boundaries are dynamic regions where the Earth's lithosphere is constantly changing.
The mantle is below the plates.
Convergent on the western perimeter, divergent on the Easter perimeter.
It is a transform boundary.
No, a strike-slip fault forms at a transform boundary where two plates slide past each other horizontally. A convergent boundary is where two plates move towards each other, leading to subduction or collision.
The Andes are a result of the convergent boundary between the Nazca and South American Plate.
Mt. Fuji is located in Japan. It is near a continental convergent boundary, a continental transform boundary, and an oceanic transform boundary.

Convergent means where plates are moving together. Divergent means where plates are moving apart.

A convergent plate boundary occurs between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate. The Nazca Plate is subducting beneath the South American Plate, leading to the formation of the Andes mountain range.
The Mariana Trench is a convergent plate boundary.
A plate is not classified as convergent, divergent, or transform, a plate boundary i.e. a boundary between plates is. All three types of plate boundary can be found along the edges of the North American plate.
It is a transform boundary.
No, a strike-slip fault forms at a transform boundary where two plates slide past each other horizontally. A convergent boundary is where two plates move towards each other, leading to subduction or collision.
