A continental-continental convergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move against together, creating folded mountain ranges.
The Himalayas are formed from a continental to continental plate convergence.
Continental-continental convergence
Its when the oceanic crust and the continental crsut colide together.
are the result of continental-continental convergence (:

An example of a continental-continental plate convergence is the collision boundary between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate that formed the Himalayas. The convergence between these two plates has led to the uplift of the Himalayan mountain range over millions of years due to the ongoing collision between the two continental plates.
Some examples of mountain ranges created by continental-continental convergence are the Himalayas (resulting from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates) and the Alps (formed by the collision of African and Eurasian plates).

Convergence can occur between oceanic-oceanic, oceanic-continental, and continental-continental plates. This process typically leads to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic arcs.
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge was not the result of continental convergence. Instead, it is a divergent boundary where new oceanic crust is forming as tectonic plates move apart.
