Plate margins that are coming together are called what?
Convergent plate boundaries
Why are convergent plate boundary's called convergent?
At convergent boundaries plates come together. In other words, they converge.
When two plates converge it is called?
It is called the concept of Biologically it is Plate tectonic. Scientifically it is Converge Belt By Terny Winblock Woods
What is an example of convergent boundaries?
An example of convergent plate boundaries on earth is the Himalayas. :)
Does divergent plate boundarys produce the largest earthquakes?
Divergent plate boundaries typically produce smaller earthquakes compared to convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates collide. At divergent boundaries, tectonic plates move apart, creating new crust, which generally results in less intense seismic activity. In contrast, convergent boundaries often involve subduction, leading to significant stress accumulation and larger earthquakes. Therefore, the largest earthquakes are generally associated with convergent, rather than divergent, plate boundaries.

What plate boundaries have the largest magnitude earthquakes?
The plate boundaries that have the largest magnitude earthquakes are convergent plates. Convergent plates are moving together and eventually collide. These plates are usually along the edge of an ocean and next to a continent.

What type of plate boundary does compression occur?
Converging Plate Boundaries
Are subducting plate boundaries the same as convergent plate boundaries?
Yes, subducting plate boundaries are a type of convergent plate boundary where one tectonic plate moves under another plate. Convergent plate boundaries, in general, are locations where two tectonic plates move towards each other. Subduction is a specific mechanism of convergence.
What types of boundaries are there?
There are divergent, convergent, and transform plate boundaries.
