How do Folded mountains form when two plates converge?
neither plates are pushed under the other.
In order for a folded mountain to form two plates it must what?
converge
When two plates converge does compression force rocks upward to form mountains?
Yes.
What do tectonic plates form when they converge?
Convergent tectonic plates are plates that are moving toward each other.
How do the mountains that form along an oceanic oceanic convergent boundary differ from those associated with an oceanic continental convergent boundary?
the oceanic plates are denser than continental plates, therefore, when oceanic plates and continental plates converge, the oceanic will go under the continental plates. But when two oceanic converge either both will rise to form moutains, or both will sink and cause a trench.
Which features form when two oceanic plates converge?
subduction zones

What results when two ocean plates meet and converge?
it should form a underwater earthquake and causes a Tsunami
What type of mountains form at convergent boundaries where to oceanic plates meet?
When two continental plates converge, it results in formation of high mountains such as the Himalayan mountain.
What can tectonic plates form when they converge?
i think its volcanoes...i'm not sure..
How do the mountains that form along an oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary differ from those associated with an oceanic continental convergent boundary?
the oceanic plates are denser than continental plates, therefore, when oceanic plates and continental plates converge, the oceanic will go under the continental plates. But when two oceanic converge either both will rise to form moutains, or both will sink and cause a trench.

where two plates converge or dirverge
