Fault lines
Above where the earth's plates meet.
Where the different tectonic plates meet
A place where two or more roads meet is called a JUNCTURE.
when tectonic plates underneath the earth's surface rub together or move, the ground above them moves to so and earthquake takes place where two of them meet. THANK YOU
They are called a Plate Boundaries :)
The Plate Boundaries. It could be called the plate boundary, plate edge, or continental divide. With tectonic plates, they meet at the fault line.
A crack in the Earth's surface where two tectonic plates meet is called a fault. Faults are geological features that can lead to seismic activity, including earthquakes, as the plates move and interact with each other. The movement along these faults can be horizontal, vertical, or a combination of both, depending on the type of fault. Major types of faults include normal faults, reverse (or thrust) faults, and strike-slip faults.
They usually occur in places where two plates meet- faults.
The place where tectonic plates meet is called a plate boundary. These boundaries can be categorized as convergent, divergent, or transform, depending on how the plates are interacting with each other.
The earth's crust is made up of plates that are always moving. If suddenly one moves on top or under another, than the earth shakes and it forms an earthquake or tremor, depending on how much the plates moved ( a tremor is a small earthquake.) Earthquakes only occur where the plates meet, for example in Japan and America there are lots of earthquakes because lots of plates meet on the area above them. The lines where the plates meet are called fault lines
