An example is when the Indian Plate collided with the Eurasian Plate. The softer Indian Plate was forced downwards into the magma. This resulted in the formation of the Himalayan Mountain Range.

False. A rift valley forms when continental plates diverge or pull apart. When two continental plates collide the result is a mountain range.

Volcanoes cannot be formed at a continental rift, due to the fact that a volcano cannot form between two continental plates: it normally forms when one continental plate and an oceanic plate collide. Normally, a volcano forms when one continental and one oceanic plate collides. The denser oceanic plate
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
