Want this question answered?
They are the same size
A Collision plate boundary, where two continental plates that are the same in density and thickness, push against each other forming fold mountains and crumble zones. This causes Earthquakes from the pressure and stress but not volcanoes.
A subduction zone can be a result of a convergent plate boundary, but the terms are not synonymous. If the two convergent plates are continental, neither of them will subduct.
The movement of tectonic plates causes earthquakes. There are three types of plate movement. The first is Divergent Boundaries (pulling apart), Covergent Boundaries (coming together), and Transform Boundaries. When these boundaries move, huge amounts of energy are unleashed. This results in tremors that can change the Earth's surface.the colliding plate(converging)boundary is the movements of plates towards each other that causes the formation of trenches....the strike-slip(transforming)boundary is the movement of plates side-ward that causes the deformation of land forms.......the spreading (diverging)boundary is the movement of plates away from each other that causes to the formation of ridges and rift in the ocean and mountain or hills in the land.......
Shear stress: At a transform boundary, two plates are moving past each other, either in opposite directions or both in the same direction but at differing speeds. As the boundary between the two plates is not perfectly smooth there will be some interlocking along the boundary. As the plates continue to move and this interlocking resists movement, shear stresses develop.
I think there 1)Destructive (convergent) 2)collision(convergent) 3)constructive(divergent) 4)conservative(transform) the brackets are the same words
They are the same size
No it is not.
there the same
No, some are convergent (against each other), some are divergent (away from each other), and most boundaries are transform (horizontal grinding) at some point.
intersecting lines divergent lines convergent lines

well i have no idea im asking the same question and they wont tell me the answer -__-
divergent=divide, convergent=come same direction, and transform=slide by past each other.
