Convergent plate explain

Answer 1

Convergent Boundary is one of the three different kinds of plates that cause earthquakes. The Convergent Boundary is the coming together of plates while Divergent Boundaries are the pulling apart of plates.

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

when the land is pushed farther apart to form more land

Answer 4

a converging plate is when 2 or more techtonic plates move torward each other and collide

Answer 5

A diverging plate is when two Tectonic Plates move away from each other

Answer 6

two plates clides together
