Question

what happens when the plates converge and diverge?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Divergent (Spreading):This is where two plates move away from each other. ... Convergent (Colliding): This occurs when plates move towards each other and collide. When a continental plate meets an oceanic plate, the thinner, denser, and more flexible oceanic plate sinks beneath the thicker, more rigid continental plate.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. ... Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.
