How a trench formed?
a trench is formed when 2 oceanic plates collide
What forms when oceanic plates collide?
1. Oceanic trenches. 2. Volcanic islands. 3. Volcanic mountains. and 4. Volcanic arcs.
Compare and contrast the three plate boundaries?
Oceanic-continental convergence (when an oceanic plate meets a continental plate) & oceanic-oceanic convergence (2 oceanic plates) both involve oceanic plates & subduction. Continental-continental convergence (2 continental plates) involves neither.
What is it called when two tectonic plates colide?
It's referred to as a Convergent Boundary If 2 Continental Plates --> Mountains If 2 Oceanic Plates --> Subduction of Heavier (older) Plate If Continental-Oceanic --> Oceanic Plate slides under the Continental Plate (Subduction of Oceanic)
What forms when 2 plates collide?
earthquakes
How did a mountain form?
the earth is made up of different plates and all the plates are different sizes, shapes and weight. there are 2 types of plates, oceanic and continental. a mountain is formed when 2 continental plates of the same weight collide into each other, it creates a mountain and the oceanic plates underneath them are pused down.
What is 2 collision of 2 oceanic plates?
an earth quake happens when two plates meet
What is it called when 2 tectonic plates collide?
convergence
What happens when 2 oceanic plates?
It makes a mountain.
What 2 major land formation occurs at convergent boundaries?
Two major land formations that occur at convergent boundaries are volcanic arcs and mountain ranges. When oceanic and continental plates collide, volcanic arcs are formed due to the subduction of the oceanic plate beneath the continental plate. Alternatively, when two continental plates collide, mountain ranges are formed through the intense compression and folding of the Earth's crust.
Were is the first volcano?
where 2 plates collide and form one.
What happens when 2 land plates collide?
it makes a mountain
