What else can I help you with?
What does the collision of one plate with another form?
A convergent boundary
The difference between a transform and convergent boundary?
A transform boundary occurs when tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes. On the other hand, a convergent boundary forms when two tectonic plates collide, leading to the formation of mountains, trenches, and volcanic activity.
What is another type of boundary where rock layers fold to form mountain ranges?
Another type of boundary where rock layers fold to form mountain ranges is a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, tectonic plates are pushed together, causing compression that leads to the folding and uplift of rock layers, resulting in the formation of mountain ranges.
What is the difference between convergent boundary and subduction zone?
A convergent boundary is a tectonic plate boundary where two plates move toward each other, leading to various geological features and phenomena, such as mountain ranges or earthquakes. A subduction zone is a specific type of convergent boundary where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, typically an oceanic plate beneath a continental plate, resulting in the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs. While all subduction zones are convergent boundaries, not all convergent boundaries involve subduction.
Which plate boundary is one lithospheric plate sliding under another?
A convergent plate boundary involves one lithospheric plate sliding under another, leading to subduction zones where one plate is forced beneath the other. This process is associated with the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs.
What is the name of the boundary where two plates are moving toward one another?
Convergent boundary.
What does the collision of one plate with another form?
A convergent boundary
What is the movement of the convergent boundary?
A convergant boundary is destructive because the plates approach one another.
Is a subduction zone a type of convergent boundary?
Yes, a subduction zone is a type of convergent boundary where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate.
The place where two tectonic plates push into another?
convergent boundary
What is another type of boundary where rock layers fold to form moun?
convergent
At which plate boundary is one lithospheric plate sliding under another?
The kind of plate boundary where one lithospheric plate slides under another is a convergent boundary. This process is called subduction.
Which landform would most likely be found at a convergent subduction boundary?
convergent boundary -rift valley divergent boundary -mid-ocean ridge
The difference between a transform and convergent boundary?
A transform boundary occurs when tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes. On the other hand, a convergent boundary forms when two tectonic plates collide, leading to the formation of mountains, trenches, and volcanic activity.
What is movement of the plates compared to?
The movement of the plates can be compared to... Transform boundary- sliding past one another convergent boundary- moving together divergent boundary- pulling apart
What are the three types of convergent plate boundries?
The three types of convergent boundaries are when two plates meet and two oceanic plate meet, or where an oceanic and continental plate meet.the three types of convergent boundaries are continent boundaries , continent - ocean boundaries, and last but not least............. ocean boundaries
What is the boundary for convergent?
In plate tectonics, a convergent boundary also known as a destructive plate boundary (because of subduction), is an actively deforming region where two (or more) tectonic plates or fragments of lithosphere move toward one another and collide. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.
