What is the motion of the plates in a convergent boundary?
They come together
What is the motion of plates in a divergent boundary?
going apart
What is the motion of plates in a transform boundary?
Sliding together
What is formed as a result of a continental convergent boundary?
Mountains
What is formed as a result of a continental-continental divergent boundary?
Trenches; ravines; rift valleys
What happens as a result of a transform boundary?
Earthquakes
What is formed as a result of an oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary?
Subduction zones
What is formed as a result of an oceanic-oceanic divergent boundary?
Mid-ocean ridges
BONUS: What is the process called of one plate sliding under another?
Subduction
What is the most common result of an oceanic plate subducting under a continental plate?
Describe and name the creation process of mid-ocean ridges.
Seafloor spreading; magma is pushed upwards and cools, forming new sea floor and pushing the plates away
+250 Points: How could two plates on a transform boundary that slide in the same direction not cause an earthquake?
They could be moving at the same speed.
