What is the plate movement of a destructive plate?
tectonic shift
Which countries place on the Indian plate?
Countries that are predominantly located on the Indian Plate include India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and parts of Afghanistan. These countries are positioned on the Indian tectonic plate which is part of the larger Indo-Australian Plate.
Does Indian plate have trench forms?
Yes, the Indian plates do have trench forms. Another name for the Indian plate is the India plate. It is a tectonic plate that was originally part of ancient Gondwana.
What is the name of the plate west of the Indian plate?
Arabian plate
Why didn't the Indian plate subduct when it collided with the Eurasian plate?
The Indian plate did not subduct when it collided with the Eurasian plate because the Indian plate is less dense than the Eurasian plate, causing it to be pushed upwards and form the Himalayan mountain range instead of being forced beneath the Eurasian plate.
What from of plate tectonic movement formed the Himalayas?
The Himalayas were formed by the collision of the Eurasian plate (continental) and the Indo-Australian plate (continental).
In which direction is the indo-australian plate moving?
The Indo-Australian plate moves Northeast as the Pacific Plate moves around it in a Northwest direction as if rotating.
What direction do plate tectonics move in?
They don't move in a specific direction. Every plate moves in it's own direction and sometimes they can change directions.
What plate motion has created the Himalayan mountain range?
The Himalayas mountain range was created when the Indian plate crashed into the European plate. The softer Indian plate was pushed under (a process known as subduction), lifting and forming the Himalayas (which is still growing).
What direction is the Cocos Plate moving?
Cocos Plate is moving towards the north-east.
What type of plate boundary occurs at a Mountain?
One example is when the Indian Plate crashed into the European plate. As the Indian plate was driven beneath the European plate, the Himalayas was formed and is still increasing in height.
