\ When serving plates, The crust crumples and buckles into mountain ranges. India and asia crashed about 55 million years ago. They slowly did and started forming the himalayas. Mt. Everest is the highest point on earth. It might be taller tomorrow than it was yesturday. Because the uropean and asian plate move them together and the himalayans get bigger because of it. As a land mass plate rises. It starts forming mountain ranges. The driving plate meits and spewed out in volcanic eruptions such as mountains of andes of south america. When plates drives under the other plates they form deep trenches. Like the marina trench. And they form under water volcanoes under the water. Convergent has convergences, Ocean, Continenta, Oceanic, Continental.
 * Convergent Boundaries

Diversion Boundaries Divergent Boundaries pull away and a new crust is moved. The submerged mountain range extends abouve the tip of africa. Cause of the diversion plates. Tha atlantic ocean grows because of the diversion plates. And the south American plate and the African plate pull them. New volcanoes form when the ground beakes wjile it pulls away. In million years from eastern africa will split from the continent to form a new land mass. When divergent plates move magma sputs out.

Transform Boundaries When two plates grind past each other along what are called strike-strip faunts. They dont preduce spectacular features like mountains or oceans. But the halting motion triggers large earthquakes. Because of the pacific plate and north american plate pulling apart. They are found at the ocean floor. It is about 1,300 km long and in places 10's of killometers wide. The san Andreas Boundrie. In parts of the oceans some parts are inactiive. They dont move and do anything under the world.
