When tectonic plates collide, they can form various geological features depending on the nature of the collision. If two continental plates converge, they can create mountain ranges, such as the Himalayas. When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, it can lead to subduction, forming deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs. Additionally, the collision of two oceanic plates can result in island arcs.

What is collide divide slide?
"Collide divide slide" is a phrase used to describe the three main types of plate boundaries: convergent (collide), divergent (divide), and transform (slide). Convergent boundaries are where plates come together, divergent boundaries are where plates move apart, and transform boundaries are where plates slide past each other.
When tectonic plates collide the Earth's crust forms?
When tectonic plates collide they often form volcanoes or moutains. But when they slide past each other they create earthquakes...like in Haiti or Japan.
What factors are most important when determining the type of boundary that forms when two lithospheric plates collide?
i love it
What happens and what forms when 2 continental plates collide?
When two continental plates collide, they can form mountain ranges due to the intense compression and uplift of the Earth's crust. This collision can also lead to the formation of earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. Over time, the collision can result in the merging of the two continental plates into a single larger landmass.
What forms when plates collide and one plate is pushed up over another plate?
a volcanoe! hope you found this helpfull! :)
What forms when 2 plates collide?
earthquakes
What can happen when to plates collide together?
a fault
Is convergent boundaries?
when two plates collide together
What kind of boundry forms when two plates collide?
A Convergence Boundary.
A rift valley forms where two plates do what?
collide into each other
What are converging boundaries?
A convergent boundary is when two plates collide with each other forming landforms like trenches, or mountains (depends which type of plates converge.)
When two oceanic plates collide what physical feature forms?
Mountains and grass
How do foothills change over time?
When earths plates collide together
This is when two plates collide together?
Earthquake, which can also lead to tsunamis.
What were the causes of earthquake?
The plates under the Earth's surface collide together:)
What is collide divide slide?

What landform forms when two of earth's plates collide?
A mountain range forms when two of Earth's plates collide. The intense pressure and forces created by the collision push the Earth's crust upwards, creating towering peaks and ranges. Examples include the Himalayas formed by the collision of the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
