It is located on a convergent boundary, where the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates collide. This collision causes stress and strain to build up in the crust, which is eventually released in the ...

which include divergent boundaries, like East Africa, where plates move apart forming new crust; and convergent boundaries, like the Himalayas, where two plates collide and recycle crust.

Examples: Paricutin in Mexico, Sunset Crater in Arizona. – Composite volcanoes or stratovolcanoes: These are symmetrical, cone-shaped and have a conduit system through which magma flows to the ...
