When one continental plate slides under another this is formed?
When one plate slides beneath another it is said to subduct. This is called a subduction zone. However, a continental plate cannot subduct, only an oceanic plate can. When two continental plates collide the land between them is squeezed horizontally, forming mountain ranges. Eventually the continental land masses will fuse together.

material from the Earth's surface is returned to the interior.
When one tectonic plate slides on one another?
earthquake
What happens when an oceanic plate moves under a continental plate?
When an oceanic plate moves under a continental plate, a subduction zone is formed. The oceanic plate is forced down into the mantle, where it melts and creates magma. This magma can then rise to the surface, causing volcanic activity on the continental plate.
What is the process of a oceanic plate colliding with a continental plate?
Its when the oceanic crust and the continental crsut colide together.
What is formed when a dense ocean plate slides beneath a continental plate?
A subduction zone is formed.

How is the lava formed insind a volcano?
When an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide, it forms a volcano. The oceanic plate subducts underneath the continental plate. As the oceanic plate slides underneath, a magma chamber is formed. This magma chamber is what feeds the volcano.

What happens when the oceanic plate moves to the side and the oceanic plate slides past the continental plate?

What formed the Himalaya?
The Himalayas were formed by the collision of the Eurasian plate (continental) and the Indo-Australian plate (continental).
When one continental plate slides beneath another what happens?
Water seeps into rock cracks and dissolves minerals there. The solution travels through cracks in the rocks, eventually concentrating into large crystals."The process above is a description o
What is formed when plate slides against another plate?
well it's simple: an earthquake that can kill and destroy cars, trees, and buildings and they can cause tsunamies
These are formed when oceanic plates slide under continental plates?
Subduction zones are formed when oceanic plates slide beneath continental plates. The process leads to the oceanic plate being forced into the Earth's mantle. This can result in the formation of deep oceanic trenches and volcanic activity at the surface.
Could the Himalaya mountains be formed into a continental-continental convergence?
The Himalayas are formed from a continental to continental plate convergence.
What two plates formed mount Pinatubo?
Mt. Pinatubo is in a subduction zone. subduction is when one tectonic plate slides under another. In the Mt. Pinatubo area the Eurasian Plate slides under the Philippine Sea Plate at the Manila Trench.
What is formed when a more dense oceanic plate slides under a less dense continental plate?
A subduction zone, with a whole host of other geological features such as an Island arc, volcanoes and a mountain range.
