continental plates meeting form fault lines
A convergent boundary is formed when plates collide. In this type of boundary, one plate is forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This collision can result in the formation of mountains, volcanic arcs, and deep-sea trenches.

A transverse boundary is when two plates collide, causing great amounts of pressure. The plates crumble, and usually get destroyed. This is a very destructive type of boundary. This is also know as a transform boundary, or a sliding boundary- even though this action is the opposite of sliding.
A convergent plate boundary is where two plates move towards each other. This can result in one plate being forced beneath the other in a process called subduction, or the plates can collide and create mountain ranges.
landform created bye the convergence of two continental plates
When plates collide it is called a convergent boundary.newtest3
convergent boundary
A convergent boundary is where two plates collide. This can lead to the formation of mountains, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
Convergent boundary
A convergent boundary is formed when plates collide. In this type of boundary, one plate is forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This collision can result in the formation of mountains, volcanic arcs, and deep-sea trenches.

When two plates collide, it can form different geological features such as mountain ranges, deep-sea trenches, and volcanic arcs. The exact formations that occur depend on the type of collision, whether it's a convergent boundary where plates collide, or a transform boundary where plates slide past each other.
The movement or action of the plate determines what type it is. When two plates collide, they are creating a convergent boundary. Therefore you could state that they are convergent (or colliding) tectonic plates.
A convergent boundary is when two plates collide with each other forming landforms like trenches, or mountains (depends which type of plates converge.)
A transverse boundary is when two plates collide, causing great amounts of pressure. The plates crumble, and usually get destroyed. This is a very destructive type of boundary. This is also know as a transform boundary, or a sliding boundary- even though this action is the opposite of sliding.
A destructive boundary is a certain type of boundary of a tectonic plate. Destructive boundaries make the plates move toards each other and eventually collide. This is why they are often called collision boundaries.
