mezya [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

At convergent boundaries, collisions occur as lithospheric plates move toward each other.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the movement of the tectonic plates is not driven by magnetism.

B is not correct because at this type of boundary the tectonic plates move toward each other, not slide past each other.

C is not correct because the plates move toward each other at this type of boundary, not move away from each other.

D is correct because at this type of boundary the plates move toward each other, and as they do collisions occur, resulting in the formation of mountains and subduction zones.
