    Convergent Plate Boundary (subduction zone)

    Explanation:

    A convergent plate boundary is a location where two tectonic plates are moving toward each other, often causing one plate to slide below the other (in a process known as subduction). The collision of tectonic plates can result in earthquakes, volcanoes, the formation of mountains, and other geological events. An example is the one the formed Andes Mountain.
