A convergent boundary forms when two continental plates collide. Neither plate subducts because the crusts have approximately the same density. Instead, the rocks are smashed together causing them to recrystallize due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates. Convergent plates boundaries are most often the site of ______________ on Earth.

Answer: Mountains.

Step-by-step explanation:

The convergent limits are formed when two continental plates of equal density collide, this causes that in the surface mountains are formed, on the contrary under the surface the crust increases in depth pushing more material toward the surface, that is, making the mountain or mountain chain higher. An example of this is the Himalayan mountain that was formed by the collision between the tectonic plate Indica and the Euro-Asiatic.

I hope this information can help you.
