Plate Boundaries and Features

Which happens at a  TRANSFORM boundary?

• major earth quakes
• mid ocean ridge
• rift valley
• deep sea trenches

Mountains form when a continental plate and an oceanic plate MOVE AWAY from each other.

• True

• False

What would you be most likely to find at a CONVERGENT boundary between LAND (continental crust) and OCEAN (oceanic crust)?

• Non volcanic Mountains

• Volcanoes on land (in an arc)

• Mid-Ocean Ridge

• Rift

• Volcanoes in the ocean (island arc)

What would be at a DIVERGENT boundary in an OCEAN?

• Rift

• Mid-Ocean Ridge

• Island Arc

• Flat land

What would be at a CONVERGENT boundary as two LANDS (continental plates) move into each other?

• Continental Volcano

• Non Volcanic Mountains

• Rift

• Volcanic Island Arc

Subduction happens where?

• When one plate SINKs or GOES UNDER the other

• Divergent Plate Boundaries

• Transform Plate Boundaries
