When two tectonic plates collide what does it make?

When two tectonic plates collide, it can form various geological features such as mountain ranges, earthquakes, and volcanic activity. The specific features that form depend on the types of plates involved and the specific boundaries at the collision zone.


Do folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide?

Yes, folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide. The immense pressure from the collision pushes the edges of the plates upward, creating long, folded mountain ranges. Examples include the Himalayas and the Andes.

What stress occurs when two tectonic plates collide?

When two tectonic plates collide, compressional stress occurs. This stress causes the rocks to fold and deform, leading to the formation of mountain ranges, such as the Himalayas. The intense pressure and friction between the plates can also result in earthquakes and volcanic activity.
