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: -Collisional Mountain Range Development A collisional mountain range forms as an entire ocean closes and blocks of thick continental crust collide.
