Most of the geological activity at the surface of earth takes place at boundaries between?

Most of the geological activity at the Earth's surface takes place at boundaries between tectonic plates. These boundaries can be convergent (where plates collide), divergent (where plates move apart), or transform (where plates slide past each other).


What is a place where two plates rub together called?

What causes continental plates to move?

Continental plates move due to the process of plate tectonics, where the plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere layer beneath them. This movement is driven by convection currents in the mantle, caused by heat from the Earth's core. When these currents push or pull on the plates, they cause them to move, leading to phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.

What are plates that come together called?

Plates that come together are called convergent plates. At convergent boundaries, these tectonic plates move toward each other, often resulting in geological phenomena such as earthquakes, mountain formation, and volcanic activity. The interaction can involve one plate being forced beneath another in a process known as subduction.
