What else can I help you with?
Convergent boundaries can be divided into 3 categories what are these categories and what geological feature are created by each?
The categories are a continental and a continental plate colliding, continental and oceanic plates colliding, and oceanic and oceanic plates colliding. The two continental plates form mountains. The continental and oceanic plated colliding cause subduction zones and volcanoes. Oceanic and oceanic plates colliding form a trench.
Why are there several categories of convergent plate boundaries?
Convergent plate boundaries have different categories based on the types of tectonic plates involved and the resulting geological features. Categories include oceanic-oceanic convergence (with subduction zones and volcanic arcs), oceanic-continental convergence (resulting in mountain ranges and deep ocean trenches), and continental-continental convergence (leading to large mountain ranges). Each category corresponds to specific interactions between plates and the resulting landforms.
What is an example of convergent boundaries?
An example of convergent plate boundaries on earth is the Himalayas. :)
How are convergent boundaries different from divergent boundries?
convergent boundaries collide but divergent boundaries move away from each other.
What are convergent boundaries classified by?
The Convergent Boundaries are classifid according to the compass direction of movement of the plates.
Which of these hazards out of earthquakes volcanoes mountains trenches and mudslides are at convergent boundaries?
Earthquakes and volcanoes are hazards typically associated with convergent boundaries where tectonic plates collide. Mountains can also form at convergent boundaries due to the collision of plates. Trenches are associated with subduction zones at convergent boundaries where one plate is forced beneath another. Mudslides are not directly related to convergent boundaries.
Which type of plate boundary creates the ring of fire?
The ring of fire is created by convergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates collide and one is forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This leads to volcanic activity and seismic events around the Pacific Ocean.
Convergent boundaries that produce maintains boundary produces?
Convergent boundaries that produce maintains are called subduction zones.
What are the three types of convergent?
The three types of convergent boundaries are when two plates meet and two oceanic plate meet, or where an oceanic and continental plate meet.the three types of convergent boundaries are continent boundaries , continent - ocean boundaries, and last but not least............. ocean boundaries
What types of boundaries are there?
There are divergent, convergent, and transform plate boundaries.
What types of boundaries do subduction zones occur?
Convergent Boundaries!
How are convergent boundarys different from divergent boundarys?
convergent boundaries collide but divergent boundaries move away from each other.
