• convergent boundary

• transform boundary

This type of boundary does NOT involve magma.

• divergent

• convergent

• transform

This type of boundary creates folded mountains.

• transform

• divergent

• continental-continental convergent

• continental-oceanic convergent

Subduction means...

• one plate goes under another plate

• two plates slide past each other

• two plates collide and form folded mountains

The process that causes the tectonic plates to move is called...

• Subduction

• Transform

• Convection

Divergent plates move:

• Away from each other

• Towards each other

• Slide past each other

How do convergent plates move?

• Towards each other

• Away from each other

• Past each other

At a transform boundary, the plates...

• Collide

• Diverge

• Slide past each other
