Question

Which three events occur when earths convection currents move toward each other

Answer 1

Answer:

- Tectonic plates above the currents move toward each other;

- One plate will submerge beneath another plate;

- A convergent boundary is formed at the site of the collision;

The convection currents are the ones responsible for the movement of the tectonic plates, thus shaping the Earth's appearance with their movement, as well with the structures created by the movement. If the convection currents move toward each other, than the tectonic plates are moving toward each other. That will cause collision between the continents, and convergent boundaries will be formed. If the collision is between two or more continental plates, than they will merge, and from the pressure mountain ranges will start to form, but if there an oceanic plate involved as well, than the oceanic plate will be subducting beneath the continental plate or plates.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A, Tectonic plates above the currents move toward each other.

Option C, One plate will submerge beneath another plate.

Option D, A convergent boundary is formed at the site of the collision.
