What else can I help you with?
What causes different kinds of volcanic mountains?
it can be caused by many things, such as hot spots, convergent plate boundaries, and divergent plate boundaries
What type of plate collision cause the Appalachian mountains?
The Appalachian mountains were formed as a result of a collision between the North American plate and the African plate during the Paleozoic era. This collision caused the uplift and folding of rocks that eventually formed the mountain range we see today.
What plate are the Appalachian mountains on?
They're on the north American plate.
Which two plates collide in the Appalachian mountains?
The pacific plate and the cocos plate
Do the Andes and Appalachian Mountains lie on the same type of plate edge?
No, the Andes are near a subduction zone type plate edge but the Appalachian Mountains are not near any plate edge of any kind.
What type of plate boundary form of mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
What is the connection between mountains and plate boundaries?
Mountains are often formed at plate boundaries where tectonic plates collide. This collision can cause one plate to be forced upward, leading to the formation of mountains. The uplifted plate may undergo further geological processes, such as folding and faulting, which contribute to the mountain-building process.
Which plate boundary creates mountains?
convergent plate boundaries
Which area in the world is an example of plate collision?
Appalachian Mountains
Name 5 kinds of landforms caused by plate movement?
Mountains - formed by convergent plate boundaries where plates collide and are pushed upward. Rift valleys - formed by divergent plate boundaries where plates move apart, creating a depression in the earth's crust. Faults - fractures in the earth's crust caused by plates rubbing against each other. Folded mountains - created by the folding of rock layers due to compression at convergent plate boundaries. Volcanoes - formed at convergent and divergent plate boundaries where magma rises to the surface through the crust.
How are earthquakes and plate boundaries connected?
by mountains . (:
What plate boundaries make mountains?
convergent
