When tectonic plates shift and energy is released what happens?
earthquakes form
What have earthquakes got to do with mountains?
when some earthquakes come they make the ground or surface of the earth uneven which sometimes form mountains
What body of water do earthquakes form?

What usually occurs near a fault line in the Earth's crust?
Earthquakes, and volcanoes form.
What is the relationship between volcanoes and Earth's moving plates?
When the plates collide they form volcanoes and earthquakes.
How does an earthquake origanate?
Earthquakes form by tectonic plates moving around under the earth's crust.
What type of weathering occurs to form mountains?
not weather but sometimes earthquakes and when the Earth's "plates" move
How does the continental drift form?
Continental drift is what happens when the Earth's plates shift either towards or away from the other plates. Earthquakes occur when two of the plates bump into each other. It happens when the magma from within the Earth rises up and pushes the plates, due high pressure they pose. That's the best I can do.
Which part happens at a convergent plate boundary?
Mountains form, volcanoes can form/erupt, earthquakes can occur. That's all I know sorry.
