The Convergent/Converging Boundaries
i love it
Convection current occurs due to the difference in densities
The most important factor when determining the types of boundaries that form when two lithospheric plates collide is the relative motion between the plates. Depending on whether the plates are moving towards each other, away from each other, or past each other, different types of boundaries like convergent, divergent, or transform boundaries will form.
it moves crustal materials from place to place
The type of collision that occurs when two lithospheric plates converge is determined primarily by plate density. If both plates are of similar density, a continental-continental collision may occur, resulting in mountain-building and seismic activity. If one plate is denser than the other, a subduction zone may form where one plate is forced beneath the other, leading to volcanic activity and the formation of oceanic trenches.
A transform boundary is formed when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. The movement at these boundaries is typically characterized by frequent earthquakes due to the friction between the two plates as they slide. An example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California.
an earthquake
A convergent boundary is when two plates collide with each other forming landforms like trenches, or mountains (depends which type of plates converge.)
forms when two {crustal} lithosphere plates move apart.

well in a volcano the lithospheric plates meet when magma moves and moves at the bottom and in the magma chamber the lava[magma] is moving around the lithospheric plates thats what forms them but what forms when they rub against each other is a volcanic eruption

The primary source of crustal deformation is tectonic plate movement. The Earth's lithosphere is divided into several rigid plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. The interactions and collisions between these plates result in various forms of crustal deformation such as folding, faulting, and mountain building.
When two lithospheric plates move apart, a divergent boundary is formed. This process results in the creation of new oceanic crust as magma rises to fill the gap between the plates, forming a mid-ocean ridge.
when plates push together, it forms new land.
The outer layer of the earth where the land masses are is called the crust
