Question

3. Mountains are most often associated with what type of plate boundary? 4 points

Transform
Convergent (subduction)
Convergent (collision)
Diergent

Answer 1

Convergent (collision)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mountains are most often associated with convergent (collision) margins.

Convergent margins in which there is a collision occurs between two crusts that have nearly the same density. This is usually the case with continental - continental crust collision.

• Along these margins, instead of subduction, a mountain-building process occurs.
• As they collide with one another, they grind against one another and pull up.
• This leads to the formation of mountains.
• One very prominent example is the Himalayas.
