The San Andreas Fault in California is known as an active earthquake area. What type of boundary is it?

• converging

• diverging

• transform

• sea floor spreading

When two oceanic plate boundaries meet, what crutal feature forms?

• Plate tectonics

• sea floor spreading

• folded mountains

• volcanic island arc

When an oceanic crust meets a continental crust, what occurs?

• The oceanic crust moves under the continental crust resulting in a volcano

• The oceanic crust moves over the continental crust resulting in volcanoes

• The two crusts converge forming folded mountains such as the Himalayas

• Both crust are subducted down into the mantle.
