This land formation occurs at a divergent continental/ continental boundary.

• mid ocean ridge
• deep ocean trench
• pacific hot spot
• rift valley

Volcanoes commonly happen around this type of plate boundary.

• Convergent
• Divergent
• Transform
• Transperpendicular

The mid-ocean ridge is located at this type of plate boundary.

• Convergent
• Divergent
• Transform
• Transperpendicular

This is when an oceanic plate sinks beneath a continental plate.

• Conversion
• Sedimentary Rock
• Subduction
• Transversion
