• Divergent

The Divergent boundary is also known as constructive boundary, because here, new crust is created.

At this plate boundary, the plates move towards each other. Which is it?

• Convergent

• Rift valley

• Divergent

At a Divergent plate margin, the plates

• Push upwards to form mountain

• Move away from each other

• Move toward each other

Which BEST describes a subduction zone?

• An earthquake zone

• Volcanoes occur there

• The heavier plate dives under the other

Mountains are formed at Collision zones.

• True

• False

Earthquakes can occur at all plate boundaries.

• True

• False

Volcanic activities occur at all plate boundaries, EXCEPT

• Divergent

• Convergent

• Transform
