What plate converge to form the Caribbean islands?
carribbean plate and south American plate
What features could occur where the northern part of the indo Australian plate is colliding with the eurasian?
Mountain ranges or mountain building could occur where the northern part of the Indo-Australian plate is colliding with the Eurasian plate.
How do observations of earthquakes and volcanic activity support theory of plate tectonics?
Observations of earthquakes and volcanic activity support the theory of plate tectonics because they both occur on boundaries. Boundaries are where plates meet and either converge, diverge or transform.
When two plates converge the is called?
It is called the concept of Biologically it is Plate tectonic. Scientifically it is Converge Belt By Terny Winblock Woods
What two pl ates converge to form Andes?
The South American Plate and the Nazca Plate are the two plates that converge to form the Andes mountain range. The Nazca Plate is subducting beneath the South American Plate, leading to the uplift of the Andes through volcanic activity and compression.
What is an example of a land and a land plate converge?
Pacific ring of fire.

Is divergent plate movement associated with the strongest earthquakes?
Although earthquakes can occur anywhere on the planet with little or no warning, the strongest earthquakes occur near the plate boundaries, as the plates converge (collide), diverge (move away from another)
Where and when will a volcano most likely occur?
where two plates converge or dirverge
Which features form when two oceanic plates converge?
subduction zones
What is the subduction zone called when a oceanic and continental plate converge?
The subduction zone formed when an oceanic plate and a continental plate converge is called an oceanic-continental subduction zone. In this setting, the denser oceanic plate is forced beneath the less dense continental plate, leading to the formation of volcanic arcs and deep oceanic trenches.
Do most earthquakes and volcanos occur at plate boundaries?
For the most part, yes. Plate boundaries are where they either converge, or diverge, or transform against each other. If they Diverge, that opens a space between the two spaces, letting lava flow out and create more sea floor. When they Converge (come together), that makes a ridge (although not necessarily a volcano). The Ring of Fire is a prime example of quakes and volcanoes appearing on plate boundaries. The 'Ring' is actually on plates, if you look at a map of Plate Boundaries (see Related Links) you can see that.
