In which direction do plates travel at a convergent boundary?
At a convergent boundary, plates move towards each other.
What are the 3 types of plate boundarys?
divergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move apart from each other. convergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move towards each other so that one plate can sink beneath the other. transform plate boundary- a boundary where one plate slips along side another plate.
What type of plate boundary occurs when two plates move towards each other?
This is called a convergent boundary, because the two plates are converging, or coming together.
What is an example of a convergent plate?
an example of a convergent plate/boundary are mountain ranges
What are the three plate movements?
The three main types of plate movements are convergent, where plates move towards each other; divergent, where plates move away from each other; and transform, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
In which direction do plates travel at a convergent boundary?
At a convergent boundary, plates move towards each other.
Are subducting plate boundaries the same as convergent plate boundaries?
Yes, subducting plate boundaries are a type of convergent plate boundary where one tectonic plate moves under another plate. Convergent plate boundaries, in general, are locations where two tectonic plates move towards each other. Subduction is a specific mechanism of convergence.
What direction do plate tectonics move in?
They don't move in a specific direction. Every plate moves in it's own direction and sometimes they can change directions.
What will occur at a convergent plate boundary?
as the plates move towards each other the denser plate subducts into the asthenphere

What forms where a oceanic plate begins to move down in a subduction zone?
Convergent Boundaries
What are the 3 subtypes of convergent plate boundaries?
1. Oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary. 2. Continental-continental convergent plate boundary. and 3. Oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.

An example of convergent plate boundaries on earth is the Himalayas. :)
