Mt. Everest and theHimalayas.
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of the Indian Plate pushing into the Eurasian Plate, in a convergent boundary known as a continental collision.
Continental Collision Boundary
the himalaya mountains were formed in a collision at a convergent boundary
Yes, the Zagros Mountains were formed due to the collision between the Arabian Plate and the Eurasian Plate along a convergent boundary. This ongoing tectonic activity continues to uplift and shape the Zagros Mountains.

A continental-continental plate boundary is typically associated with the formation of mountain ranges due to the collision of two continental plates. This collision results in intense compression, leading to uplift and the creation of features like fold mountains. An example of this type of boundary is the Himalayas, formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates. Additionally, earthquakes are common in these regions due to the stress and strain generated by the tectonic interactions.
the andes mountains were formed by a continental collision
The type of boundary that the Andes mountains are, in South America, is a convergent plate boundary. This was formed from the collision of the South American plate boundary and the Nazca plate.
No, they formed the eastern boundary, in the form of the continental divide.
