What is occurred by colliding plates?

Answer 1

earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, underwater earthquakes, underwater volcanic eruptions. also, if an underwater earthquake occurs because of colliding plates, a tsunami can occur as well. it's like a chain. if something happens, there is always an effect following it.

Answer 2

A collision boundary is two plates colliding at each other creating a subduction zone. The heavier/slower plate dives 20-60 degrees down from the surface and the lighter/faster plate is crushed and forms folded mountains along the boundary.

Answer 3

When plates collide into each other or Convergent boundary that forms Volcanoes and Mountain ranges.

When they split apart or Divergent plate boundary that forms mid ocean ridges under water and on land it forms a valley or a rift valley

when they slip past each other or transform boundary it causes earthquakes.

Answer 4

Colliding plates can result in a variety of geologic events such as the formation of mountains, earthquakes, volcanic activity, and ocean trench formation. The collision can cause crustal rocks to deform and buckle, leading to the creation of these features.

Answer 5

Colliding Plates are 2 plates that as they separate they destory crust and the plates become smaller.

Answer 6

By the direction they are moving...... The plates move because of convection currents inside of the mantle. Perhaps that second tidbit is the answer you were looking for.

Answer 7

when plates collide. They push each other up and create mountains.

Answer 8

A collision plate boundary is the movement of two continental plates towards each other, causing a collision hence the name.
