They form high range mountain becuase there is no subduction zone. This is usually a good place to find regional Metamorphic rock.

What forms from collision of continental crust and oceanic crust?
A basic mountain should be formed from the collision of continental crust and oceanic crustAnswerWhen an oceanic and a continental crust collide, the heavier oceanic crust tends to subduct under the lighter continental crust. Because of the collision and corresponding compression and also because of volcanism related to dehydration and melting of the subducted plate a mountain range is formed. The Andes mountain range is a, if not the, most typical example.
In the theory of plate tectonics what makes up a typical plate that move across Earth's surface?
A section of both continental and oceanic lithosphere
How much does 25 liters of soil weigh in pounds?
Assuming a loam soil with a bulk density of 1.4 grams/cubic centimeter (this is a typical bulk density for a loam): 25 litres = 25 dm^3 = 25 000 cm^3 25 000 cm^3 * 1.4 grams = 35 000 grams = 35 kg = 77.1617918 pounds Note that this is just an estimation for a typical soil. Different type of soils have different specific weights.
What typical source of well water?
A subterranean aquifer is a typical source
Which is the typical source of well water?
An aquifer is a typical source of well water.
What happens at a convergent plate boundary between two Continental plates?
When a continental plate collides with another continental plate, fold mountain ranges will be created. However, there would be no volcanoes, or at least very rarely not. One typical example of this process is the Himalayas.

What are typical properties of nonmetal?
low melting point low density not a conductor
Is density a charesteric property?
Yes, it is more or less typical of a specific substance.
What are typical characteristics of subduction zone?
Where oceanic crust meets continental crust and earthquakes can occur.
Density relates the mass of a material to the material's what?
The density of a material is generally typical of a material. The density is it's mass divided by it's volume. So if you have something that weight 20kg and has a volume of 2500cm3 or 2.5L it's density will be 8gcm-3
What is the typical design of a jean jacket?
The typical design of a jean jacket is to look similar to a pair of jeans, and therefore the pattern is similar to the denim pattern. Sometimes, a jean jacket can be modified with beads.
Weight of diesel fuel?
A typical value of Diesel fuel density is 0,832 g/cm3.But must be mentioned that the density may be different for each refinery.
Is density calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume?
Yes, density is expressed in mass per volume (typical units are g/cm3 and lb/in3).
