The Himalayas were formed as a result of what?
compression (:compression (:
Plates involved with Himalayas?
The Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate are the two major tectonic plates involved in the formation of the Himalayan mountain range. The collision between these plates has led to the uplift of the Himalayas over millions of years.
What type of mountain is the Himalayas?
The Himalayas are Fold Mountains
What is happening to the plate at the Himalayan mountains?
Two plates are being smashed together creating the Himalayas.
Are the plates in the Himalayas thin or thick?
thick
What mountain chain have two plates formed?
The Himalayas mountain chain was formed by the collision of the Indian tectonic plate with the Eurasian tectonic plate. This collision continues to push the two plates into each other, causing the Himalayas to still be one of the world's fastest-growing mountain ranges.
What mountain range is an example of plates colliding?
The Himalayas is an example of a mountain range formed by the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate. The collision between these two plates has uplifted the region, resulting in the formation of the tallest mountains on Earth.
Did the movement of plates create the Himalayas?
The Himalayas were lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate,
What type of plate boundaries exists today along Himalayas?
Indo-Austrailan and the Eurasian Plates Stay in School Kids
How were large mountain ranges such as the Himalayas?
collision of tectonic plates
What is an example of a continental-continental plate convergence?
An example of a continental-continental plate convergence is the collision boundary between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate that formed the Himalayas. The convergence between these two plates has led to the uplift of the Himalayan mountain range over millions of years due to the ongoing collision between the two continental plates.
Is the Himalayas divergent or convergent?
Yes, the Himalayas are located on a convergent boundary.There are three types of convergent boundaries:-Oceanic-Oceanic-Oceanic-Continental-Continental-ContinentalOf the three types, the Himalayas are considered to be Continental-Continental. Meaning, it's a collision between two continental plates.
