Question
sometimes earthquakes occur at a boundary between the indian and eurasian plates. the collisions of these two continental plates formed the himalayan mountain range. based on this information, which type of boundary exists between the indian and eurasian plates? ○ continental - continental convergent ○ continental - continental divergent ○ oceanic - continental divergent ○ oceanic - continental convergent
The question states the boundary is between two continental plates (Indian and Eurasian) that collided to form the Himalayas. Convergent boundaries occur when plates collide, and since both are continental, this is a continental-continental convergent boundary. Divergent boundaries involve plates moving apart, which does not match the collision described, and oceanic plates are not involved here.
