Question
what typically happens to earths crust at a convergent boundary? question 12 it is destroyed it is created it separates it remains unchanged
At a convergent boundary, tectonic plates move towards each other. One plate is usually forced beneath another (subduction), leading to the destruction of the crust in that area. Creation of crust occurs at divergent boundaries (plates moving apart), separation also relates to divergent boundaries, and unchanged is incorrect as plate interactions cause changes.
