Explanation / Answer

these are associated with geological events such as mountain ranges - plate boundaries. The tectonic activites which led to the movement of plates resulted in the geological events.

A convergent plate boundary is destructive. It is a region of active deformation where two or more tectonic plates are near the end of their life cycle.

a rift in the middle east is red sea. The Red Sea occupies part of a large rift valley in the continental crust of Africa and Arabia.

basal drag, slab pull and gravitational sliding are driving forces.
