Volcanic mountain ranges are formed from oceanic-continental convergent-subduction boundaries, much like with volcanic islands. When a plate is subducted, the crust forming this plate is heated and melted creating magma which erupts from the crust and creates volcanic mountain ranges.
What else can I help you with?
What type of plate movement creates folding mountains?
Mountains form along convergent boundaries when 2 plates collide. These are also called colliding boundaries.
What creates the hymaliya mountains?
two plate boundaries .
Which plate boundary creates mountains?
convergent plate boundaries
What types of tectonic setting creates the tallest mountains on the land?
Continental/Continental convergant boundaries create the tallest mountains on land.
What type of fault does not form mountains?
A transform fault does not typically form mountains. Transform faults are characterized by horizontal motion and sliding past each other, so they do not promote vertical displacement that creates mountains like convergent or divergent boundaries do.
What type of plate boundary form of mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
What type of boundaries creates volcanic mountains?
Volcanic mountain ranges are formed from oceanic-continental convergent-subduction boundaries, much like with volcanic islands. When a plate is subducted, the crust forming this plate is heated and melted creating magma which erupts from the crust and creates volcanic mountain ranges.
What type of plate of plate boundary causes mountains?
Convergent Boundaries.
What combination of boundary type and crust types creates enormous mountains?
Convergent boundaries with either oceanic-continental or continental-continental crust types can create enormous mountains. The collision of tectonic plates at these boundaries forces the crust to fold, fault, and uplift, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges like the Himalayas.
What geographical boundary creates mountains?
Mountains are created by tectonic plate boundaries where plates collide, causing the Earth's crust to fold and push upwards, forming mountain ranges.
What type of land form do you get at collision boundaries?
mountains, volcanoes, rift valleys, fault lines,
What type of landform can be created at all three types of plate boundaries in California?
Mountain ranges can be created at all three types of plate boundaries in California: convergent boundaries (e.g. Sierra Nevada Mountains), divergent boundaries (e.g. Basin and Range Province), and transform boundaries (e.g. San Gabriel Mountains).
