Answer:
recycled back into the Earth's mantle.
Explanation:
Because it is typically recycled back into the Earth's mantle at subduction zones (where two tectonic plates collide).
Answer:
Sometimes an entire ocean closes as tectonic plates converge, causing blocks of thick continental crust to collide. A collisional mountain range forms as the crust is compressed, crumpled, and thickened even more. The effect is like a swimmer putting a beach ball under his or her belly—the swimmer will rise up considerably out of the water. The highest mountains on Earth today, the Himalayas, are so high because the full thickness of the Indian subcontinent is shoving beneath Asia.
The Appalachian Mountains formed during a collision of continents 500 to 300 million years ago. In their prime they probably had peaks as high as those in the modern zone of continental collision stretching from the Himalayas in Asia to the Alps in Europe. But over the past 300 million years, the Appalachians have eroded to more modest heights.

have a good day!!!
There are 550 active volcanos in the world, almost all of which are located at convergent tectonic plate boundaries. This includes all of the volcanoes in the pacific ring fire, such as Japan's mount fuji, as well as mount saint helens, popocafepeti in mexico and Azul in the Andes range.
Hope this helps.
Answer: About -173 Degrees Fahrenheit
Explanation:
The moon turns away from the sun, so it gets very cold. In the daytime, it can reach to almost 100 Degrees!
