Plate Boundaries

Plates that diverge or move apart from each other

• divergent

• transform

• convergent

• lithosphere

Cracks or breaks in earth's crust where plates slip past each other

• subduction

• faults

• mid-ocean ridge

• san andreas

Continental plate collides with another continental plate creates

• volcanoes
