earthquakes occur

Answer 1

The result of boundary plates colliding or sliding past each other primarily leads to **earthquakes occurring**. While collisions can also create mountains (such as the Himalayas from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates) and volcanic activity can occur at certain plate boundaries, the immediate result of the interaction between tectonic plates, especially at transform boundaries where they slide past each other, is typically seismic activity, or earthquakes.
