Convergent boundaries are formed when two plates on the earth's surface collide. This may cause one of three things to happen. One, one plate will be forced under the other causing a trench and creating mountain ranges, two, the two plates will crumple together like an Accordion and pus up forming mountain ranges like the Himalayas, and three the may remain stationary possibly causing earthquakes and increasing the pressure of the lithosphere. So convergent plate boundaries regularly result in mountains and ocean trenches. The areas around convergent boundaries are often subject to increased levels of seismic activity do to the friction and pressure caused by the boundary
1. Oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary. 2. Continental-continental convergent plate boundary. and 3. Oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.
An area where two tectonic plates collide is called a boundary. There are three kinds of boundaries. They are convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
A Transform Fault ZoneIn the textbook Earth Science and the Environment (4th Edition) by Thompson and Turk. Located on page 163, it shows that Tonga has a Convergent Boundary. A convergent boundary is where two lithospheic plates collide head on.
convergent
They form on convergent boundaries.
There are 3 types of Convergent boundaries, they are; 1. Continental-continental convergent boundary. 2. Continental-oceanic convergent boundary. 3. Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary.
Convergent boundary.
A convergent boundary causes compressional stress.

The Mariana Trench is a convergent boundary, where two tectonic plates are colliding and one plate is forced beneath the other.
