what happens when tectonic plates collide on convergent boundaries and push rock and minerals into each other? which landform or land - mass can be formed by uplift? canyon plain mountain basin
When tectonic plates collide at convergent boundaries and push rock and minerals into each other, uplift occurs. Mountains are formed by such uplift - the compression and folding of rock layers due to plate - to - plate collision. Canyons are formed mainly by erosion, plains are flat areas not formed by uplift from plate collisions, and basins are low - lying areas.
