Volcanoes or sometimes earthquake!
when plates push together, it forms new land.
convergent boundary
When two continental plates push together, they can create mountain ranges through a process known as orogeny. The immense pressure from the collision causes the crust to buckle and fold, leading to the formation of high peaks and complex geological structures. A prime example of this is the Himalayas, which formed from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.
continental-continental collision I think. When I got down to the last one, that was the only answer left.
Mountain ranges are formed when plates with continental crust collide. The immense pressure causes the crust to buckle, fold, and uplift, creating mountainous terrain such as the Himalayas or the Alps.
When tectonic plates push together, they converge, forming a convergent boundary.
Converging continental plates create mountain ranges through a process called continental collision. When two continental plates collide, neither is subducted due to their similar density. Instead, the plates crumple and fold, leading to the uplift of the Earth's crust and the formation of mountain ranges.
When plates with continental crust push together, they form convergent boundaries. The collision results in the crumpling and uplift of the crust, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges like the Himalayas. Subduction may also occur where one plate is forced beneath the other, creating deep oceanic trenches and volcanic activity.

Continental plates move due to the process of plate tectonics, where the plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere layer beneath them. This movement is driven by convection currents in the mantle, caused by heat from the Earth's core. When these currents push or pull on the plates, they cause them to move, leading to phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.
The type of tectonic forces that create mountains are called converging plates. As two continental plates push together, the stress forces them both upwards. Because of this the Himalayas are still growing.
