What is the effect if the cause is two plates collide and one is pushed upward?
you get mountains out of molehills
How do plate tectonics make underwater volcanoes?
When two tectonic plates collide with each other. If they collide, they usually slide under each other, causing a tsunami. However, If the collide head on, ground is pushed upward, creating a volcano'mountain
What is an upward mountain?
Upward mountains are mountains that are formed when blocks of Earth's crust are pushed up by forces inside the Earth
Why is one air mass pushed upward when two air masses collide?
one air mass is denser than the other (check answer again just in case)
What is formed when two plates collide and press upward?
Mountains are formed in this way. The Himalayan mountains were formed this way; in fact, they are still growing today as one plate slides under another.

What landform forms when two of earth's plates collide?

When two plates carrying continents collide the continents buckle upward or downward?
upward

What types of tectonic forces create moutians?
When two continental plates collide, the crust is pushed upward and mighty mountain ranges are produced Ex: Mount Everest (Himalayas)

Upward mountains are mountains that are formed when blocks of Earth's crust are pushed up by forces inside the Earth
What type of landform is created by the collision of continental?
When two Continental plates collide, both plates lift upward and it can form mountains or mountain chains.
What is created when there is a continental-continental collision?
Both plates collide and lift upward, forming moutains or mountain ranges.
Are any mountain forming today?
mountains form as tectonic plates ( plates that constantly move under ground) collide and shoot upward, so yes.
Why is one air mass pushed upward when two air masses collide?
one air mass is denser than the other (check answer again just in case)
What happens to Rocks when plates collide?
When two plates collide, or come together, the plates will push upward, forming a mountain. If one plate is continental crust and the other is oceanic crust, the less dense crust (this being the oceanic) will actually move under the more dense crust, in a process called subduction, to form a deep-ocean trench.
Is the wing being pushed upward or downward?
Upward
