stress at a convergent plate boundary

uplift
subsidence
tension
compression
normal fault
anticline
syncline
reverse fault

Answer 1

Stress can be referred to as a force which when applied to a rock causes its deformation.

There being three types of plate boundaries, stress caused is also of three types i.e. compression at convergent boundaries, tension at divergent boundaries, and shear at transform boundaries.

 Stress at a convergent plate boundary is called compression.
