Plate Boundaries
Mount St. Helen and Mount Lascar were formed by this denser type of plate tectonic.
What is Oceanic Crust vs Continental Crust?
In Divergent Boundaries, plates move apart to form this.
What is a Rift Valley?
This term is used for new oceanic crust moving away from the Mid-Ocean Ridge and cooling to become denser.
What is Subduction?
The San Andres Fault is considered this type of boundary.
What is a Transform Boundary?
The types of Convergent Boundaries are Oceanic Crust vs Oceanic Crust, Continental Crust vs Continental Crust, and this other type.
What is Continental Crust vs Oceanic Crust?
These two natural disasters can occur when plates slide-slip past each other.
What are earthquakes and tsunamis?
Sea-Floor Spreading begins at this location.
What is the Mid-Ocean Ridge?
The Mid-Ocean Ridges and the Great Rift Valley are this type of boundary.
What is a Divergent Boundary?
The Himalayan Mountains are this type of crust.
What is Continental Crust vs Continental Crust?
Plates that collide or smash together form this type of boundary.
What is a Convergent Boundary.
Molten material, magnetic stripes, and this are evidence for sea-floor spreading.
What is Drilling Samples?
Plates collide or smash together with this type of boundary.
What is a Convergent Boundary
Weak spots around the crust where magma flows to the surface are called these.
What are hot spots?
Oceanic Crust vs Oceanic Crust cause these when older, denser crust is pushed down.
What are deep ocean trenches?
Earth's Core heats the mantle and causes this.
What are Convection Currents?
