Formation of mountains, together with the associated volcanoes and earthquakes.
The prime/best example is the Indian sub-contiant (India) moving north into the Asiatic plate. The result is the Himalaya Mountains, & earthquakes in the region.

What type of fault is a convergent boundary?
A convergent boundary is a type of fault where two tectonic plates collide, causing compression forces that lead to the plates being pushed together. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and powerful earthquakes.
What type of motion occurred between the two plates?
A convergent boundary can form between two plates and a divergent boundary can be created between two plates, then two plates rubbing together create earthquakes, many are very minor. A convergent boundary is two plates pushing together to form a mountain, hill, or volcano. Divergent plates move apart and create canyons and stuff.
Do convergent motion occurs where two plates push together?
Yes, convergent motion occurs where two tectonic plates push together. This movement leads to the formation of features such as mountains, volcanoes, and deep ocean trenches due to the intense pressure and geological activity at the plate boundaries.
What is it call when plates come together?
It is called a "convergent boundary".
What happens when two continental plates come together?
When two continental plates come together, they can form convergent boundaries where one plate is forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, earthquakes, and volcanic activity as the plates interact and collide.
The world that means plates pushing together is?
Convergent Plates
What is a zone where rock surfaces are pushing together?
We see tectonic plates pushing together in what is called a convergent plate boundary.
What are three plate motions?
There are actually 4 types.....1.convergent-two plates pushing toward each other2.divergent-Two plates moving apart3.subduction-one plate is pulled under the edge of another4.Transform\lateral-Two plates slide past each other
What are plates that push together called?
when two plates push together, it could either cause mountains or a subduction zone. When they cause mountains it's when two
What type of fault is convergent boundary?
A convergent boundary is a reverse fault. It's a reverse fault because it it pushing together, while a divergent boundary is a normal fault because 2 plates are pushing away from each other.
What is movement of the plates compared to?
The movement of the plates can be compared to... Transform boundary- sliding past one another convergent boundary- moving together divergent boundary- pulling apart
What type of fault is a convergent boundary?
A convergent boundary is a type of fault where two tectonic plates collide, causing compression forces that lead to the plates being pushed together. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and powerful earthquakes.
Where do plates move together?
convergent boundary
What are convergent boundaries classified by?
The Convergent Boundaries are classifid according to the compass direction of movement of the plates.
What is the difference between convergent boundary and convergent plate boundary?
Convergent means where plates are moving together. Divergent means where plates are moving apart.
What kind of boundary do tectonic plates move together?
A convergent boundary is where plates move together.
What boundary do two plates come together?
Convergent
