Step-by-step explanation:

There exist three types of convergent boundaries:

Oceanic-continental: This happens when oceanic plates and continental plates push together, making the oceanic plate to displaces below the continental plate.Oceanic-Oceanic: Happens between two oceanic plates. In the region where the plate suffered subduction, magma will rise producing new crust.Continental-continental: Happens when two continental plates push against each other, making both plates to rise up and produce mountain ranges.
