Convergent
boundaries or destructive plate boundary due to subduction, is an actively deforming
area where two or more tectonic plates of the lithosphere move towards one
another and collide. As an effect of pressure, plate material and friction
melting in the mantle, volcanoes and earthquakes are common near convergent
boundaries. Subduction or continental collision is created when two plates move
towards one another, depending on the nature of the involved plates. During
these collisions (between two continental plates) Himalayas and large mountain
ranges are formed.

Answer:
The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones[1], divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:
The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.
The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.
The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.
The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S and the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.
The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

On the basis of latitudinal extent, the globe is divided into three broad heat zones.
The tax to $2.99 would be the extra 1 cent you would have to pay so that it would become $3.00. Additional tax may be added like 6 cent or something but that only depends on the store or place you go to.
World maps do have changed during the centuries because we grew in knowledge and technology, but the maps have also been shaped by differences in culture, religion, experience, and geography and also because of different natural disaster
