What kind of boundary do tectonic plates make when they when they move away from each other?
boundaries where plates are moving away from each other are called constructive plate boundaries. These boundaries cause very minor volcanoes and are given their name because they make new land in where the lava solidifies in the gap between the plates. this usually occurs under the sea.
What plate boundaries make mountains?
convergent
Are the continents of Africa and Asia smaller or larger than the rest of the continents combined?
Together, the continents of Asia and Africa make up about 75,000,000 sq km. The rest of the continents together make up just under that amount. So really, they would be neither "very much" larger or smaller, but almost the same.
What type of fault do Transform boundaries make?
The Strike Slip faults
Can a convergent boundary turn into a divergent boundary?
Yes because divergent boundaries split apart and convergent boundaries make mountains so a mountain can split
What observations can you make about the relationship between volcanoes and plate boundaries?
Volcanos are usually found over subducting plate boundaries.
What boundaries make mountains?
Mountains are typically formed by tectonic plate movements, where one plate is pushed up over another, creating uplifted landforms. The boundaries where tectonic plates meet, such as convergent or collision boundaries, often lead to the formation of mountain ranges through processes like folding, faulting, and volcanic activity. These boundaries can also experience intense seismic activity, leading to the further formation and growth of mountains over time.
What would happen if the continents were moving?
The continents are moving. The tectonic plates that make up the continents are always in constant, but miniscule, motion. Often this movement results in earth quakes along the tectonic fault lines due to collisions between them.
Which 2 continents make up Eurasia?
Eurasia is made up of two continents: Europe and Asia. They are connected both geographically and culturally, forming the largest landmass on Earth.
What are rivers in Jamaica that make boundaries?
Jamaica is a self contained island - it has no land boundaries.
What are boundaries called that make straight lines and fail to incorporate regional distinctions?
The boundaries that make a straight line and fail to incorporate regional distinctions are called maritime boundaries. These boundaries often move or have been fought over by countries that claim rights to these territorial boundaries.
What kind of boundary do tectonic plates make when they when they move away from each other?
boundaries where plates are moving away from each other are called constructive plate boundaries. These boundaries cause very minor volcanoes and are given their name because they make new land in where the lava solidifies in the gap between the plates. this usually occurs under the sea.
What causes volcanoes to form at spreading boundaries?
Please make the question clearer. There are converging and diverging boundaries but not spreading boundaries. Plates move but don't spread. Please make the question clearer
When did humans make it to all the continents?
Humans reached all the continents in the 19th century, when they began to make tentative visits to Antarctica.
What ia a continent?
Continents are the large areas of land that make up the earth's dry surface, not including non-continental islands. The definition of the continents are rooted in historical convention, as there are no fixed criteria that can be systematically applied to define what a continent is, and where the boundaries between adjacent continents lie. For example, the dividing lines between Africa, Europe, and Asia are quite convoluted and arbitrary. Similarly, there is no steadfast rule preventing Greenland from being considered a continent, or requiring Australia to remain a continent.The largest continental landmasses, in order from large to small, are as follows:Afro-Euroasia (includes Africa, Europe, and Asia),the Americas (including North America and South America)Antartica, andAustralia.
What is the relationship between plate boundaries and where earthquakes happen?
Plate boundaries are the absolute edges of the tectonic plates that make up our earth's crust. These plate boundaries clash with others making what are known as fault lines, which are the cause of earthquakes.
What plate boundaries make mountains?
convergent
