mountains and valleys are formed...pretty much
Rift Valleys are the most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.
Volcanoes are more common along convergent boundaries
.....tectonic plates
Subduction doesnt occur at divergent boundaries, but rather they are found at convergent boundaries.
The boundaries between two colliding plates is called a convergent boundary. Earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries, a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle.

The most common natural disasters that are a direct result of convergent boundaries and their shifts are earthquakes.
Both were probably formed from convergent plate boundaries.
Composite cone volcanos are the most common.. Shielding and other types are results from a divergent boundary.
Reverse or thrust faults will be most common at convergent boundaries.
Any type of plate boundary can cause an earthquake. That said, areas along convergent, divergent, and transform tectonic plate boundaries are the most likely places for earthquakes to occur.
They are where mid-ocean ridges occur. Island arcs are common features of convergent boundaries where two ocean plates meet. The boundary where two plates slide past each other, is a transform boundary. The density of the plates, is important at subduction zones, where the denser plate sinks below the less-dense plate, which is also a feature of convergent plates. Tectonic plates are part of the lithosphere, which floats on the asthenosphere.
Volcanoes and volcanic activity occurs at plate boundaries. Especially when one plate over rides another plate - convergent boundary. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.
