What types of plates move apart?
divergent plate boundaries do.
How are the movement of plates at divergent boundaries and transform boundaries similar?
They are not similar, divergent boundaries are where the move apart. transform boundaries are where the two plates rub together and move in opposite directions with great force.
What are plates called if they move apart from each other?
Divergent Boundaries
What is the difference between convergent and divergent and transform boundaries?
Divergent boundaries- Plates move apart from each other Convergent boundaries- Plates compress against each other Transform boundaries- Plates move past each other
How are divergent and transform fault plates alike?
Divergent boundaries are when two plates move apart. Divergent Boundaries in the ocean is when the sea floor spreads as the oceanic plates move apart. This causes places like the oceanic ridge. Divergent boundaries on crust are when two pieces of crust move apart. This makes mountains and valleys. Transform Boundaries are formed when two plates shear against each other, like the San Andreas Fault in California. The only way they are alike is because both of them cause earthquakes.
What do plates move apart on?
Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.
Plates move apart because of?
the plates move apart because of plate boundaries !:)
What do plates move apart along on?
Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.
What are the three ways boundaries interact?
convergent boundaries: plates move together divergent boundaries: plates move apart transform boundaries: plates move against each other
What kind of boundaries move plates apart?
divergent
What are spreading boundaries?
Spreading boundaries are places where two plates move apart.
What types of plates move apart?
divergent plate boundaries do.
How are divergent plates different from convergent plates?
Divergent Boundaries happen when two plates (oceanic or contental) begin to diverge, or move apart. Convergent Boundaries occur when two plates (again, oceanic or contential) begin to converge or move apart
What happens divergent boundaries?
divergent boundaries happen when 2 plates move apart or divide
How are the movement of plates are divergent boundaries and at transform boundaries similar?
They are not similar, divergent boundaries are where the move apart. transform boundaries are where the two plates rub together and move in opposite directions with great force.
How are the movement of plates at divergent boundaries and transform boundaries similar?
They are not similar, divergent boundaries are where the move apart. transform boundaries are where the two plates rub together and move in opposite directions with great force.
How are plates moving at diverging boundaries?
To diverge means to move apart.
