What else can I help you with?
What is the place called where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge or push together?
magma
Place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge or push together?
continental-continental collision I think. When I got down to the last one, that was the only answer left.
Im the place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge or push together?
You are describing a subduction zone, where one tectonic plate moves beneath another due to convergence, resulting in the destruction of the older crust through melting and recycling in the Earth's mantle. This process often leads to the formation of volcanoes and deep ocean trenches.
What is the place where older crust is destoyed because two plates converge or push together?
Convergent boundary...it's on my homework
Where older crust is destroyed because two plates press together?
convergent boundary
Crust is destroyed near?
Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundaries in Earth. In between the oceanic and continental plates, the subduction of the denser oceanic crust takes place.
Is the crust destroyed or formed in transform boundary?
Niether. At a transform boundary, plates slide past each other, and crust is conserved.
What type of boundary is crust not destroyed?
A crust is not destroyed at a divergent boundary, where tectonic plates move away from each other. This movement creates new crust as magma rises to the surface and solidifies.
What can tectonic plates form when they converge?
When tectonic plates converge, they can form features such as mountain ranges, deep-sea trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes. The collision and subduction of plates at convergent boundaries can also lead to the formation of island arcs and continental crust deformation.
What major landform is made when two continental plates converge?
When two continental plates converge, a major landform created is a mountain range. The intense pressure and collision between the plates causes the Earth's crust to uplift, forming large mountain ranges such as the Himalayas or the Alps.
What can form where two plates converge?
When two tectonic plates converge, a subduction zone can form where one plate is pushed beneath the other, creating deep oceanic trenches and volcanic arcs. Another possibility is a collision boundary, where the two plates collide and form mountain ranges due to intense pressure and folding of the Earth's crust.
What is formed in lithosphere when two continental plates converge?
When two continental plates converge, they can create mountain ranges due to the intense pressure and collision between the plates. This process, known as continental collision, leads to the folding and uplift of the Earth's crust. Examples of mountain ranges formed by this process include the Himalayas, which were created by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates. Additionally, seismic activity is common in these regions due to the stress and strain on the crust.
