When an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate resulting in volcanic activity this type of boundary forms?
booff
What geologic features are associated with each type of convergent boundary?
Subduction zones, trenches and volcanic islands: the boundary that is oceanic. Trenches and volcanic islands: an oceanic-continental boundary. Folded mountain ranges: a continental and continental collision.
Do earthquakes make mountains?
No.Mountains are the result of continental drift an volcanic activity. Earthquakes are also the result of continental drift an volcanic activity. Thus the two go together but the earthquakes do not cause the mountains.
What are two major geologic features produce near a plate boundary where subduction occurs?
volcanic activity and growing mountain ranges
Explain the difference between the volcanic activity that occurs at a hot spot and the volcanic activity that occurs at a subduction boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate?
the second one is a result of the oceanic plate being pushed into the magma while the ring of fire is like how those crusts are formed by the lava reaching the surface then creating a mountain like structure then another one is made and the first one is pushed aside and erodes. Hawaii an example of this
When an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate resulting in volcanic activity what type of boundary is formed?
Convergent Boundary (Subduction Zone)

Which can be produced at an ocean-continental convergent boundary?
continental volcanic arc
What geologic features are associated with each type of convergent boundary?
Subduction zones, trenches and volcanic islands: the boundary that is oceanic. Trenches and volcanic islands: an oceanic-continental boundary. Folded mountain ranges: a continental and continental collision.
What is a specific example of what forms as a result of a shift in a convergent boundary?
at an oceanic to continental convergent boundary trenches and volcanic mountains can form. at an oceanic to oceanic convergent boundary trenches and volcanic islands can form. at a continental to continental convergent boundary fold mountains can form
What is the difference between the volcanic activity that occurs at a hot spot and the volcanic activity at a subduction boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate?
The hot spot volcanic activity is not dependent on the subduction and melting of oceanic crust. The hot spot simply appears to be a non-moving place in the Earth's mantle where heat rises from the interior.
What results from a convergent boundary?
Continental mountains, ocean trenches, volcanic mountains, volcanic islands and arcs.
What plate boundary is not associated with volcanic eruptions?
Transform boundaries do not produce volcanic activity.
What are characteristics of at least one type of plate boundary?
volcanic activity
What landforms form at a continental and oceanic divergent plate boundary?
The landforms that could develop at a continental and oceanic divergent plate boundary includes; Rifts and Volcanic Mountains.
The cascade range volcanoes are associated with which type of plate boundary?
convergent oceanic oceanic
