Plate Tectonics

What geological feature would an oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary create?

• volcanic mountains

• mountains

• volcanic islands

What geological feature would an oceanic-continental convergent boundary create?

• volcanic mountains

• mountains

• volcanic islands

When one plate forces it's way under another plate.

• convection

• boundary

• subduction

Associated with transform boundaries.

• Volcanoes
• mountains
• trenches
• earthquakes

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

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

_______________ Currents within the mantle cause the earth's plates to move and shift s molten material rises and falls due to density and gravity

• Convection
• Radiation
• Conduction
• Wind

Where would sea floor spreading most likely occur?

• At convergent boundaries (oceanic vs. oceanic)

• At convergent boundaries (oceanic vs. continental)

• At divergent plate boundaries (oceanic vs. oceanic)

• At transform plate boundaries

Plates slide grind/slide  past one another at ____________ boundaries.

• divergent
• convergent
• transform
• submerged

What is the name of the area around the Pacific Plate in which many earthquakes occur and volcanoes are formed?

• San Andres Fault
• Atlantic Mid-Ocean Ridge
• Himalaya Mt. Range
• Ring of Fire

At this boundary, old crust is destroyed and deep earthquakes occur

• Transform

• Continental-Continental Convergent

• Divergent

• Oceanic-Continental Convergent
