A convergent boundary in which one (the less dense) plate is submerged under the other. Or mountains can form this way as well.

What happens and what forms when 2 continental plates collide?
When two continental plates collide they buckle up and fold forming mountains.
Do folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide?
Yes, because of the huge compressional forces when two plates collide. This can happen at either a continental-continental boundary or a continental-oceanic boundary.
What land form is created by tectonic plates crashing together?
this depends on the two plates that collide. Ocean plates are much heavier than continental plates. If an ocean and continental plate collide, the ocean plate sinks underneath and creates a trench. If two ocean plates or two continental plate collide, it creates a mountain range/ oceanic ridge depending on the type.
What is formed on the bottom of the ocean where two plates collide?
continental slope
What is the result when two plates is carrying the continental crust collide?
haha
