the convergent boundry type is determined by the types of plates. There are Continent - continent plates converging this forms mountains. Then there a Oceanic crust and continental crust colisions which form subduction zones and volcanic activity on the continents side. Lastly there are Ocean - Ocean plate collisions where the hotter and younger ocean floor obducts onto the older floor.

What are converging boundaries?
A convergent boundary is when two plates collide with each other forming landforms like trenches, or mountains (depends which type of plates converge.)
