Mountain formation is a feature associated with a continental plate boundary, where the collision of two continental plates results in the uplift of the Earth's crust, creating mountain ranges such as the Himalayas.
1. Oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary. 2. Continental-continental convergent plate boundary. and 3. Oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.
Convergent plate boundaries.
A Collision plate boundary, where two continental plates that are the same in density and thickness, push against each other forming fold mountains and crumble zones. This causes Earthquakes from the pressure and stress but not volcanoes.
A deep ocean trench is commonly formed at a plate boundary where oceanic crust converges with continental crust. The oceanic crust is denser and is forced beneath the lighter continental crust, creating a deep trench.

The Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau are formed by a continental-continental boundary where the Indian continental plate is moving north against the Eurasian continental plate.
In an oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary, an oceanic plate is subducted beneath a continental plate due to differences in density. This process can lead to the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs on the continental plate, and earthquakes. The subduction of the oceanic plate can also cause melting of rock, leading to the formation of magma that can erupt as volcanoes on the continental plate.

continental plate? divergent boundary? convergent boundary? continental drift?
No. It subducts under the continental plate.
The Himalayas in South Asia are formed by the collision of the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This collision is an example of a convergent plate boundary, where two tectonic plates move towards each other, leading to the uplift of the land and the formation of mountain ranges like the Himalayas.
The Himalayas are found at a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone where one plate slips under the other driving the land mass up.
either a continental plate divergent boundary convergent boundary or a continental drift lol
