Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What would you be most likely to find at a convergent boundary between two pieces of continental crust?
A
Volcano
B
Mountain
C
Rift
D
Island Arc
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Another form of convergent boundary is a collision where two continental plates meet head-on. Since neither plate is stronger than the other, they crumple and are pushed up. This can lead to the formation of huge, high mountain ranges such as the Himalayas.

Detailed explanation-2: -Volcanoes are one kind of feature that forms along convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide and one moves beneath the other.

Detailed explanation-3: -At a convergent boundary between oceanic and continental lithosphere, the oceanic plate will always subduct, which will cause earthquakes and form volcanic arcs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Convergent boundaries occur between oceanic-oceanic lithosphere, oceanic-continental lithosphere, and continental-continental lithosphere.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: Two landforms that are created from divergent boundaries are rift valleys and mid-oceanic ridges. Rift valleys form when the divergent boundaries are between two continental tectonic plates.
