Plate Boundaries

Sometimes, when two tectonic plates collide, one is pushed below the other; this action at the convergent boundary is called...

• Divergent boundary
• Convergent boundary
• Transform boundary
• Subduction

What geologic feature/event would you most likely to find at a convergent boundary between two pieces of continental crust?

• Volcano
• Mountain
• Rift
• Island Arc

Has rift valleys:

• Divergent
• Convergent
• Transform
• Actually, all of them

The area around the pacific plate where boundaries form is called...

• death ring

• fire zone

• ring of fire

• zone of fire

A subduction zone is formed...

• when one tectonic plate sinks below another
• at every type of convergent plate boundary
• at every type of divergent plate boundary
• at transform boundaries

What geologic feature/event would you most likely to find at a divergent boundary between two pieces of oceanic crust?

• Rift Valley
• Mid-Ocean Ridge
• Island Arc
• Flat land

What geologic feature/event you be most likely to find at a transform boundary?

• Earthquakes
• Volcanoes
• Mountains
• Rift Valleys

Mountains are created when....

• Two continental plates collide
• Two oceanic plates pull apart
• An Oceanic plate subducts under a Continental Plate
• Two continental plates pull apart

Moves away from:

• Divergent
• Convergent
• Transform

What kind of plate boundary is shown here?

• divergent
• convergent
• transform
• submergent
