Plate Tectonics Quizizz Review

At a divergent plate boundary...

• Two plates slide past each other in opposite directions

• Two plates collide together

• Two plates separate from each other

• One plate will subduct under another plate

At a convergent plate boundary...

• Two plates slide past each other in opposite directions

• Two plates collide together

• One plate will subduct under another plate OR two plates collide together

• One plate will subduct under another plate

At a transform plate boundary...

• Two plates slide past each other in opposite directions

• Two plates collide together

• One plate will subduct under another plate OR two plates collide together

• One plate will subduct under another plate
