Are the plate boundaries the same as the edges of continents?
No. Not all plate boundaries are at the edges of continents, nor do all edges of continents correspond with plate boundaries. Many plate boundaries are found in the middle of oceans, while the continent of Africa is being torn apart by a developing plate boundary. Some edges of continents, such as the west coast of South America are near plate boundaries. These are called active continental margins. Others, such as the east coast of North America, are nowhere near plate boundaries. These are called passive continental margins.
What are Two continents whose are not all on plate boundaries?
Europe and Asia have edges that are not ALL on plate boundaries.
Are the edges of the continent are the same as boundaries of plates?

What two continents' edges are not on plate boundaries?
Europe and Asia have edges that are not ALL on plate boundaries.
Can one plate have several types of plate boundaries?
All of the tectonic plates have different types of plate boundaries, most having all three types of plate boundaries. Convergent, where the plate is subducting under another plate, divergent, where the plate is pulling away from another plate, and transform boundaries where the plates are sliding past each other.
What Two continents whose edges are not on plate boundaries?
Europe and Asia have edges that are not ALL on plate boundaries.
Are all boundaries the same?
No, boundaries are not all the same.
Would you except to find plate boundaries here in Canada?
Yes, There are plate boundaries all over the world.
What are two continents whose edges are not all on plate boundaries?
South America and Australia are two continents whose edges are not all situated on plate boundaries. These continents have regions that are not along plate boundaries due to the complexities of the Earth's tectonic plates.
