Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
place where 2 plates come together (converge/collide)
A
transform boundary
B
divergent boundary
C
convergent boundary
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

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: -Such destruction (recycling) of crust takes place along convergent boundaries where plates are moving toward each other, and sometimes one plate sinks (is subducted) under another. The location where sinking of a plate occurs is called a subduction zone.
