As a result of tectonic plates moving, they usually collide and when this happens, it is more likely that A: one plate moves over the other while the other plate is pushed deep into the mantle.

Tectonic plates are parts of the Earth's crust that both the oceans and the continents rest on. They float over the mantle and as a result, are constantly in motion.

This leads to them colliding and when they do:

  • The heavier plate is pushed into the mantle
  • The lighter plate moves over the heavier plate
  • Landforms such as mountains and volcanoes are created.

In conclusion, tectonic plate movements usually result in one plate sinking into the mantle and the other moving over.
