The video explains different types of plate boundaries, focusing on divergent and convergent boundaries. It covers subduction zones, where oceanic plates are pushed under continental plates, leading to mountain formation and earthquakes, as seen with the Nazca and South American plates. The video also discusses the creation of trenches and islands, like the Mariana Trench and Islands, due to oceanic plate subduction. Finally, it describes continental collisions, such as the Indian and Eurasian plates, forming the Himalayas.
