What type of plate boundary is causing the formation of the fold mountains of the Himalayas?
Convergent Boundary.
What type of plate boundary occurs at a Mountain?
One example is when the Indian Plate crashed into the European plate. As the Indian plate was driven beneath the European plate, the Himalayas was formed and is still increasing in height.
What type of plate boundary does shearing occur?
It Occurs at a transform boundary
What type of convergent plate boundary is found along the southern part of the Himalayas?
Subduction
What type of plate boundary occurs between the Philippine plate and the Pacific plate?
it does not lie on a plte boundary but near the pacific plate
What type of plate boundary occurs when plates come together?
Convergent boundary, which in this case would lead to mountain building (as in the Himalayas)

The Himalayas in South Asia are an example of what type of plate boundary?
convergent continental-continental boundary
What is the type of movement that occurs at each type of plate boundary?
each plate boundary has a different boundaries. if you want the movement for a specific plate boundary, write the name of the plate boundary. :]
What type of plate collision is producing the Himalayas?
The Himalayas are found at a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone where one plate slips under the other driving the land mass up.
What type of plate boundary occurs between the Nazca and South American Plate?
It is a convergent/destructive plate boundary.
What type of plate boundary does shearing occur?
It Occurs at a transform boundary
What type of plate margin formed the Himalayas?
the Himalayas were formed by a collision plate boundary, meaning that the plates collided and formed the Himalayas. The Himalayas are also referred to as 'fold mountains' because of the way in which they are made.
What type of convergent plate boundary is found along the southern part of the Himalayas?
Subduction
What type of plate movement occurs at a transform plate boundary?
Divergent Boundary - Slides apart.Convergent Boundary - Collides.Transform Boundary - Slips past.
What type of boundary occurs at the Great Rift Valley in Africa?
divergent plate boundary
