Which plate boundary occurs as continental crust collides with continental crust?
Convergent plate boundaries.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at a sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at the sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Where are the most plate bounderies?
Fault lines.
Why does oceanic crust dive underneath continental crust?
This process is known as subduction and occurs at convergent plate boundaries because oceanic crust is denser than continental crust.
What two types of plates does convergent boundaries involve?
There are two types of crust on Earth: oceanic and continental. A convergent plate boundary can involve two plates of oceanic crust, two of continental crust, or one of each.
What are convertgent boundaries?
A conversion boundary is a place where 2 tectonic plates are mving toward each other. There are 3 types of convergent boundaries OCEANIC CRUST-OCEANIC CRUST OCEANIC CRUST-CONTINENTAL CRUST CONTINENTAL CRUST-CONTINENTAL CRUST They are classified according to their crust
Crust is destroyed near?
Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundaries in Earth. In between the oceanic and continental plates, the subduction of the denser oceanic crust takes place.
How is the Earth's crust created and destroyed?
It is created at mid-oceanic ridges (divergent boundaries) and it is destroyed at subduction zones (convergent boundary between oceanic crust and continental crust).
Subduction zones and what type of boundary do they represent?
Subduction zones represent convergent boundaries, where oceanic crust is being subducted under continental crust, or under a less dense oceanic crust.
Crust is destroyed along convergent boundarieswhere is crust produced?
Divergent boundaries.
What is it called when pieces of continental crust collide with a convergent boundry?
wrong question. nothing like what you just asked. where plates meet are called boundaries
