Answer:
The Himalayan Mountains by India, Nepal, and China are the best example of a convergent plate boundary.
Explanation:
The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountain range in the world, but also the most massive one. It acts as a natural boundary between Southern, Southeastern, Eastern, Central, and Southwestern Asia. This mountain range is a relatively young one (geologically speaking), and it has formed because of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates.
When India diverged from Gondwana, it started to move toward Eurasia. After tens of millions of years, the Indian plate hit the Eurasian plate from the south, and with both of the plates being continental and having a boundary with their continental parts, they created a convergent plate boundary. The pressure between the plates has resulted in lifting up the crust, gradually creating a huge mountain range.
Answer:
crust- the earth's outmost layer
inner core- the metallic layer at the earth's center
lower mantle- hottest part of the mantle
asthenosphere- the semi solid layer between the top layer and the upper mantle
upper mantle- The layer between the asthenosphere and lower mantle
top layer- The firm layer between the crust and the asthenosphere
outer core- The layer surrounding the inner core
