What are the three different types of convergent plate boundaries?
The three types of convergent plate boundaries are oceanic-oceanic, oceanic-continental, and continental-continental. Oceanic-oceanic convergence occurs when two oceanic plates collide, resulting in the formation of volcanic island arcs. Oceanic-continental convergence happens when an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate, creating volcanic mountain ranges. Continental-continental convergence involves the collision of two continental plates, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges.
What method is used to measure the movement of oceanic plates?
Satellites are used to measure the movement of plate by radiation.
Can movement of tectonic plates cause oceanic currents?
yes...it affects a lot.....
When an oceanic plate converges with a continental plate .?
When an oceanic plate converges with a continental plate, the oceanic plate slips under the continental one and into the mantle in a process called subduction. The area will be prone to large earthquakes and tsunamis. A chain of volcanoes will form on the continent.
Is mount Shasta continental or oceanic?

When an oceanic plate collides with a oceanic plate?

The margin of a continent is the boundary between continental crust and?
oceanic crust
What is a whale's continent?
Whales do not have a continent in the traditional sense, as they are marine animals that inhabit oceans and seas worldwide. However, they can be found in various oceanic regions near continents, such as the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Southern Oceans. Some species may migrate to coastal areas or specific regions during breeding and feeding seasons. In this context, their "continent" can be thought of as the oceanic zones they inhabit.
Which continent has moved the least in continental drift?
the answer is europe and asia because its a big continent and the bigger it is the slower it moves

What continent is Fiji islands of?
Fiji falls under the Australian continent along with other south pacific countries and are sometimes regarded to as Oceanic.
What continent do tuna come from?

Satellites are used to measure the movement of plate by radiation.
Which plate does not carry a continent?
The Pacific Plate does not carry a continent.
