According to the theory of plate tectonics, when plates move together volcanoes form.
ANS2:Where plates collide, mountains form. Where a plate is subducted (is pushed under another plate), volcanoes form on the other side of the subduction zone.Tectonic plates moving together will result in earthquakes. Differing types of plate contact makes for varied results. They can slide laterally in the same direction or in opposite directions. In some areas one plate will move down under a plate while the opposing plate lifts up causing mountains, valleys and rifts to form.
Transform plates move sideways past each other in opposite directions along a fault line. They are neither moving together nor apart, but rather horizontally in opposite directions.
Yes. They think the earth's crust (where we are right now), is broken into huge plates (the continents) that fit together, but move very slowly. Thank you for asking.
"Collide divide slide" is a phrase used to describe the three main types of plate boundaries: convergent (collide), divergent (divide), and transform (slide). Convergent boundaries are where plates come together, divergent boundaries are where plates move apart, and transform boundaries are where plates slide past each other.
When plates move together, they can either collide and form mountains due to the compression forces, or one plate can be forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. Subduction zones are known for generating powerful earthquakes and volcanic activity.
tectonic plates
A convergent boundary is where plates move together.
you get mountians
convergent boundary
earthquakes
Subduction zone.

they break
The plates come together
If plates move together they will make a montinous or a hill side area. If lava is flowing beneath it it can make a volcano and potentialy erupt.
convergent boundaries: plates move together divergent boundaries: plates move apart transform boundaries: plates move against each other
convergent boundary
a mountain forms.
