An example is when the Indian tectonic plate collided with the European tectonic plate. The result was the formation of the Himalayas.

True or false When two continental plates converge Rift Valley forms?

False. A rift valley forms when continental plates diverge or pull apart. When two continental plates collide the result is a mountain range.


What major landform is made when two continental plates converge?

Volcanoes and Mountain Ranges.


Why do oceanic plates move under continental plates when the two collide?

Oceanic plates move under continental plates when they converge together because the oceanic plate is more denser than the continental plate.


How do the mountains that form along an oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary differ from those associated with an oceanic continental convergent boundary?

the oceanic plates are denser than continental plates, therefore, when oceanic plates and continental plates converge, the oceanic will go under the continental plates. But when two oceanic converge either both will rise to form moutains, or both will sink and cause a trench.

If two continental plates converge a subduction zone forms?

False! When two continental plates converge a mountain range is formed. This is what formed and is continuing to "build" the Himalayan mountain chain.Subduction zones form where oceanic crust converges with and is forced under continental crust, or younger more buoyant oceanic crust.

What type of geologic feature will form two continental plates collide ( Explain)?

Mountain ranges are formed when two continental plates collide. When they converge one plate will be forced slightly under the other one.

Mountain ranges are formed when two continental plates collide. When they converge one plate will be forced slightly under the other one.


What type of mountains form at convergent boundaries where to oceanic plates meet?

When two continental plates converge, it results in formation of high mountains such as the Himalayan mountain.


What can form where two plates converge?

when two plates converge it is called plate tectonics?
