When two continental plates meet, they often collide, leading to the formation of mountain ranges due to the intense pressure and compression. This process, known as orogeny, can also result in earthquakes as the plates grind against each other. Unlike oceanic plates, continental plates are less dense and do not subduct, which contributes to their uplift and creates complex geological features.
