What do you notice about the location of earthquakes and the plates that make up the earth's surface?
earthquakes usually occur on the border between plates, as on the border between, the two plates rub against each other a lot, which creates earthquakes
The boundaries between two colliding plates are called .?
The boundaries between two colliding plates is called a convergent boundary. Earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries, a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle.
What is the border across which genes can flow between two populations called?
The border across which genes can flow between two populations is called the contact zone. Natural selection operates to produce changes in populations.
Boundary between two plates that are moving apart?
Convergent: plates move into one another.Divergent: plates move apart.Transform: plates move sideways in relation to each other.
Is there a sharp border between two biomes?

Boundaries between plates?
There are 3 main types of boundaries between plates: Convergent- when two plates are coming together (mostly form mountains) Divergent- when two plates are moving apart (mostly form rift valleys) Transform- when two plates slide past one another (also called strike-slip)
