What happens at a convergent boundary? A. Magnetism occurs as lithospheric plates are attracted toward each other by gravity.

B. Mountains form as lithospheric plates move side by side past each other.

C. Earthquakes occur as lithospheric plates move away from each other.

D. Collisions occur as lithospheric plates move toward each other.

At convergent boundaries, collisions occur as lithospheric plates move toward each other.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the movement of the tectonic plates is not driven by magnetism.

B is not correct because at this type of boundary the tectonic plates move toward each other, not slide past each other.

C is not correct because the plates move toward each other at this type of boundary, not move away from each other.

D is correct because at this type of boundary the plates move toward each other, and as they do collisions occur, resulting in the formation of mountains and subduction zones.
