Answer:

What happens along a convergent plate boundary?

If two tectonic plates collide, they form a convergent plate boundary. Usually, one of the converging plates will move beneath the other, a process known as subduction. ... The new magma (molten rock) rises and may erupt violently to form volcanoes, often building arcs of islands along the convergent boundary

Answer:

Two plates pull towards each other

Explanation:

Along a convergent plate boundary, two plates moves towards each other as the move in the same direction.

This results in different forms of plate interactions depending on the plate types.

  • At an ocean - ocean and continental - ocean convergent front, subduction of the oceanic plate occurs. This is because the oceanic plate below is denser than the asthenosphere.
  • At a continental - continental convergent front, the continental crust is pulls upward and build up as a mountain.
  • The subduction produces trenches and some volcanic islands.

lana66690 [7]
Please, observe that it is not right to say that a substance content heat.

Heat is not something that a body or substance content. Heat is the transmission of energy due to difference of temperatures.

An endothermic reactions is that where the reactants abosorb energy from the surroundings to occur. The products, then, will be higher in energy than the reactants while the surroundings get colder.
