Im the place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge or push together?

The place where two plates converge is called a convergent boundary. This results in a subduction zone where the heavier oceanic lithosphere is consumed into the mantle.

What are converge trenches?
its when to plates kiss
Do plates slide past each other at convergent boundaries?
No. Plates come together at convergent boundaries. In other words they converge. Plates slide past each other at transform boundaries.
Do Plates move together or apart at mid ocean ridges?
Mid Ocean ridges separate the plates and create new seafloor. Places where plates converge and disappear into the abyss are called trenches. The Marianas Trench is the deepest trench in the world.
What does it mean if a plate boundary is divergent?
When two tectonic plates are diverging, that means that they are coming apart. Depending whether or not they are oceanic plates or continental plates, the outcome will be different. If two oceanic plates diverge, a rift valley will occur in the ocean; if the same is with continental plates an rift vally will occur on the continent.
What can tectonic plates form when they converge?
i think its volcanoes...i'm not sure..
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.
Where is the place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge?
A destructive plate boundary (usually a subduction zone).
What are the differences between convergence and divergence plates?
Converging plates come together. They converge together. Diverging plates come apart.
What are the differences between plate tectonic and tectonic plates?
Converging plates come together. They converge together. Diverging plates come apart.
What word has the definition tectonic plates push together?
When tectonic plates push together, they converge, forming a convergent boundary.
What is the place where older crust is destoyed because two plates converge or push together?
Convergent boundary...it's on my homework
Why do oceanic plates move under continental plates when the two collide?
Oceanic plates move under continental plates when they converge together because the oceanic plate is more denser than the continental plate.
Where older crust is destroyed because two plates press together?
convergent boundary
What can form where two plates converge?
when two plates converge it is called plate tectonics?
Why are convergent plate boundary's called convergent?
At convergent boundaries plates come together. In other words, they converge.
