Plate Boundaries

It is an area where two plates meet.

• Plate Tectonics

• Plate Boundaries

• Astenosphere

• Lithosphere

It is the bending of the crust towards the mantle.

• Seafloor Spreading

• Continental Drift

• Subduction

• Collision

A type of boundary where plates slide past each other.

• Convergent Plate Boundary

• Divergent Plate Boundary

• Transform Fault Boundary

• Reverse Fault Boundary

It is formed when two continental plates diverge.

• Rift Valley

• Mid-ocean ridge

• Mountain

• Volcanic arc

A type of boundary where two plates are moving towards each other.

• Convergent Plate Boundary

• Divergent Plate Boundary

• Transform Fault Boundary

• Reverse Fault Boundary

Which of the following are the three types of plate boundaries?

• convergent, divergent, normal fault

• collision, divergent, normal fault

• convergent, divergent, transform fault

• collision, subduction, transform fault

A type of boundary where plates move away from each other.

• Convergent Plate Boundary

• Divergent Plate Boundary

• Transform Fault Boundary

• Reverse Fault Boundary

It is the deepest part of the ocean.

• Fault

• Canyon

• Ocean ridge

• Trench

In what type of convergent plate boundary mountain ranges form?

• Oceanic-oceanic convergent plate boundary

• Oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary

• Continental-continental convergent plate boundary

• Continental-transform convergent plate boundary

A boundary that causes earthquake but does not create or destroy crust.

• Convergent Plate Boundary

• Divergent Plate Boundary

• Transform Fault Boundary

• Reverse Fault Boundary
