Convergent Plate Boundaries Notes
-
When two plates collide they form a _________________________________.
-
_______________________ : the sinking of one lithospheric plate beneath
another.
-
If at least one plate is oceanic, there will be subduction.
-
Subduction of a plate leads to melting and ____________________.
-
An ____________________ arc is a line of volcanoes on an oceanic plate.
-
A ______________________ arc is a line of volcanoes on a continental plate.
______________-Continental
-
___________________ crust collides with a _____________________ plate.
-
The oceanic crust will slide underneath the continental plate (subduction) causing
_______________________.
-
These take place in ocean ______________________.
Ocean-___________________
Oceanic crust collides and the ______________ one sinks underneath the
___________________one.
-
The crust sinks down into the mantle. The hot ____________________ rises to the
surface and erupts.
-
This forms a line of __________________ known as an island arc.
-
Philippine Islands
Continental- __________________
-
___________________ crust is too buoyant to ___________________.
-
When the plates collide they form into ______________________.
-
The ____________________ _______________________are a result of
continent-continent convergence.
