Which is an example of a transform plate boundary?  

• the Himalayas 
• the East African Rift 
• the Hawaiian Islands 
• the San Andreas Fault 

A volcanic arc form when 

• two plates move laterally past each other 
• many fractured pieces of crust form along a large fault
• an oceanic plate is subducted into the mantle 
• divergence occurs along a mid-ocean ridge 

Which is NOT the results of plate convergence?  

• volcanic arcs 
• mid-ocean ridges 
• compressional forces 
• folded mountain belts 

What kind of plate movement is represented in the art below?  

• spreading 
• sliding 
• uplift 
• subduction 

The San Andreas Fault is best described as a: 

• complex fault zone 
• folded volcanic arc system 
• convergent plate boundary 
• landform created by compression

Mid-ocean ridges are created by _________ stresses as plates diverge. 

• compression 
• tension 
• shear 
• downward 

Some of Earth's tallest mountain ranges are formed as the results of ____________________. 

• tension 
• compression 
• shear 
• fault 

Which of the following does NOT described mountain ranges?  

• The plates move horizontally, but the crust also can move vertically. 
• These form slowly and in stages over million of years
•  A deep, underwater trough is formed when one plate is forced under another. 
• These can be produced by a collision between two continental plates

This is formed where plates slide horizontally past each other. 

• mountain ranges 
• transform fault
• mid-ocean ridges 
• volcanic arc 

This can form about 100 km away from where the plates converge and one plate subducts under another one.  

• mid-ocean ridges 
• volcanic arc 
• transform fault 
• continental rift
