There are types of plate boundaries which are related to the formations of earthquakes, volcanoes and
mountain belts. Because of continuous movement of the plate there is stress formed. The stress formed is
a base to base depending on the plates that may collide, drifts or slip past each other.

The pacific plate is an oceanic plate and the Philippine Sea plate is also an oceanic plate.
The plate boundaries present in the Philippine Sea is an convergent boundary with the Pacific plate.
Meaning it compresses making the Pacific Plate subducts beneath the Philippine Sea plate. This is
because of an oceanic-oceanic plate convergence. Forming a lot of seafloor trenches and volcanoes.
While between the Eurasian Plate (continental plate) and the Philippine Sea plate, it also converges. A
oceanic-continenal plate convergence. Making the Philippine Sea Plate subducts beneath the Eurasian
Plate. When the sub ducted oceanic plate at the bottom and becomes heated as it reaches the mantle
where it starts to melt as magma. The melted magma is now less dense than the surrounding rocks and
begins to escape to the surface of the crust where it will form volcanoes

Earthquakes can have both short- and long-term health consequences. The following are some of the
immediate health consequences: Building collapse deaths and injuries caused by trauma secondary
consequences of the earthquake, such as drowning from tsunamis or burning from fires, resulting in
trauma-related deaths and injuries. If this happens our country will soon be wiped out because our plate is
subducted below the Eurasian plate unless there will be a new sea floor will be created or new islands will
be created. Also because of destructions from the volcanoes and earthquakes formed. As the plate
converges, many volcanoes will form and soon be active and can cause danger to mankind. Earthquake
will destroy households and crops. These disastrous phenomena can kill and destroy mankind.
