new crust forms as plates collide
At a convergent boundary, tectonic plates move toward each other, leading to phenomena such as subduction, mountain building, and volcanic activity. However, the formation of mid-ocean ridges does not occur at convergent boundaries; instead, it takes place at divergent boundaries where plates move apart. Therefore, the creation of mid-ocean ridges is the process that does not occur at a convergent boundary.
No, convergent boundaries occur where plates move toward each other and collide or subduct, while divergent boundaries occur where plates move away from each other. It is not possible for a convergent boundary to turn into a divergent boundary because the underlying plate tectonics processes are fundamentally different.
The three types of convergence are convergent boundary, divergent boundary, and transform boundary. Convergent boundaries occur when tectonic plates collide, divergent boundaries occur when tectonic plates move away from each other, and transform boundaries occur when tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally.
Where an oceanic plate dives under a continental plate (e.g. just offshore the Washington/Oregon coast, creating a line of explosive volcanos just inland).
Earthquakes occur at all three types of plate boundary.
At a convergent boundary.

The Aleutian Islands occur at a convergent boundary, specifically where the Pacific Plate subducts beneath the North American Plate. This subduction zone has created a volcanic island arc along the boundary.
There are 3 types of Convergent boundaries, they are; 1. Continental-continental convergent boundary. 2. Continental-oceanic convergent boundary. 3. Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary.
Convergent boundary.
No, convergent boundaries occur where plates move toward each other and collide or subduct, while divergent boundaries occur where plates move away from each other. It is not possible for a convergent boundary to turn into a divergent boundary because the underlying plate tectonics processes are fundamentally different.

A convergent boundary causes compressional stress.
