what happens to a convergent boundary?

a subduction zone forms


what structures are created at each type of convergent boundaries?

Convergent boundaries are where two tectonic plates hit each other. This can cause earthquakes, but can also create mountains.


What types of plate boundaries have subduction zone?

Convergent boundaries can form between two oceanic plates, between one oceanic plate and one continental plate, or between two continental plates.


Which convergent plate boundry does not include a subduction zone and why?

The plate boundary is continental - continental. This creates mountains and earthquakes, but one plate doesn't go under the other


Which convergent boundaries do not have a subduction zone?

A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.


What boundary is it called when an oceanic plate descends beneath a continental plate?

It's called destructive plate margin/boundary, or convergent plate margin though this term applies to all plate margins where two plates are moving towards each other (such as continental + continental or oceanic + oceanic).


When an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate resulting in volcanic activity what type of boundary is formed?

Convergent Boundary (Subduction Zone)


What plate boundary is in the Himalayan mountains?

The Himalayas are found at a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone where one plate slips under the other driving the land mass up.


What is the type of plate boundary where two plates move together causig one of the slabs of lithosphere to descend into the mantle beneath an overriding plate?

This type of plate boundary is called a convergent boundary or subduction zone. It occurs when two tectonic plates collide, with the denser oceanic plate being forced beneath the less dense continental plate. This process can lead to the formation of deep oceanic trenches and volcanic arcs on the overriding plate.


What type of boundary forms when an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate?

A convergent boundary forms when an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate. This process, known as subduction, can result in the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.


What Type of Plate Boundary Is Creating MT Fuji?
