Convergent plates are two tectonic plates that are colliding as they move toward each other. There are several types of converging plate boundaries.
Oceanic to oceanic plate convergence:
Where an oceanic plate collides with another oceanic plate, the more dense plate subducts into the mantle. The subduction results in the partial melting of lithospheric rock above the area of the subduction, causing underwater volcanoes to form. If the volcanoes grow to reach the surface, volcanic arc islands are formed.
Oceanic to continental plate convergence:
Where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the oceanic plate is subducted due to the fact that it is more dense, which can also cause volcanism and mountain building.
Continental to continental plate convergence:
Where two continental plates collide, neither subducts into the mantle, the crust is thickened, and mountain ranges are formed from the thickening and uplift.
A convergent plate boundary is an area where two of the earths plates are crashing together. At those places, mountain ranges are rising. Volcanoes can explode. One such area is occurring in Northern California, Oregon, and Washington in the Western United States. Another such area is where India meets Tibet.
When two tectonic plates move toward each other it is called convergant boundary. It results in foldings.
A boundary between two plates that are moving toward each other, or converging.
These are zones/areas where two lithospheric plates, involving an oceanic and a continental plate collide.
something -___-
Plate collision.
It is on a convergent plate boundry forming a subduction zone which build pressure in the volcano causing them to erupt.
Covergent is it correct?

Two plates meet head on at this boundary.

oh nah

you will get a covergent

The Southern part of California is on the Pacific plate and the Northern part of California is on the North American plate.
