what land feature is formed when plates collide
Convergent boundaries are plate boundaries formed when two tectonic plates crush together. The denser of the two plates goes under the other! For example, if two oceanic plates (which are tectonic plates found in the ocean) collide, the denser of the two plates goes under the other and forms an oceanic trench. If an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide (a continental plate is a tectonic plate that holds land/continents), the oceanic plate will go under the continental plate and goes into the mantle. If two continental plates collide, the crust thickens and is forced to create landforms such as mountains.
