How are volcanoes formed by convergent plate boundaries?
Where one convergent plate is subducted under another, the sinking slab (which is full of wet sediments and organic remains) is heated and some of it melts to form magmas which migrate upwards to form volcanoes on the edge of the overlying plate.
What types of boundaries do subduction zones form?
This forms on the plate tectonic boundaries.... particularly the convergent plate boundries.
What kinds of volcanoes form on converging plate boundaries?
Composite cone volcanos are the most common.. Shielding and other types are results from a divergent boundary.
What type of boundary form a volcanic mountain range near a coastline?
They form on convergent boundaries.
What land features are formed from a convergent boundary?
Convergent boundaries form mountains and volcanoes.
What is converging and diverging?
Divergent and convergent are both boundaries that form different kinds of landmasses.

Why do convergent boundaries form?
i am not sure
What plate boundaries form mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.

What type of boundary form a volcanic mountain range near a coastline?
They form on convergent boundaries.
What land features are formed from a convergent boundary?
Convergent boundaries form mountains and volcanoes.
Is a stratovolcano a divergent volcano?
No. Stromboli is associated with a subduction zone, which is a convergent boundary.
Where do convergent boundary form?
convergent boundaries form when 2 plates collide, causing moutains to form over millions of years.
What causes magma to form at convergent boundaries?
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.
Is Mount Vesuvius near a hot spot divergent or convergent plate boundary?
Vesuvius is associated with a convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
