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.


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.


Where is the place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge?

A destructive plate boundary (usually a subduction zone).


What are plates in the Earth's crust?

the tectonics plates will stick together.


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.


Where is crust neither formed nor destroyed?

Crust is neither formed nor destroyed at transform plate boundaries. At these boundaries, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, resulting in earthquakes and faults but no new crust is created or destroyed.


Where do volcanoes most commonly happen?

cracks in the plates which make up the crust. the earths crust is not connected. its made up of plates that moves and they are formed by plates pushing together then collapsing. they erupt when it gets a lot of friction from the plates pushing together


Is the crust a layer of rocks under the plate or is the crust the plates?

The crust is the layer at the surface that forms the upper part of the plates. The plates also include a portion of the upper mantle just beneath the crust. Together, the crust and this upper portion of the mantle form the lithosphere.


Which plate boundary destroys crust?

Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundary. This is usually between the oceanic and continental plates. This is where subduction of the more dense crust occurs.


How do earthquakes cause changes in the earths crust?

It breaks through the crust, and sometimes goes in the core, simply because all of the force and pressure from the plates rubbing together.
