Detailed explanation-1: -If two tectonic plates collide, they form a convergent plate boundary . Usually, one of the converging plates will move beneath the other, a process known as subduction. Deep trenches are features often formed where tectonic plates are being subducted and earthquakes are common at subduction zones as well.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oceanic-oceanic convergence As with oceanic-continental convergence, when two oceanic plates converge, one is usually subducted under the other, and in the process a trench is formed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Convergent Plate Boundary-Oceanic and Continental Plates When continental and oceanic plates collide, the thinner and more dense oceanic plate is overridden by the thicker and less dense continental plate.
