What is another type of boundary where rock layers fold to form mountain ranges?
a boundary where an oceanic plate plunges beneath a continental plate
Which of earth layers are the thickest?
As measured by its thickness from upper boundary to lower boundary in a downward direction, the mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth.
When continental plates moves toward each other what kind of plate boundary is that called?
the boundary is called a convergent boundary
How did Beno Gutenberg discover the boundary between mantle and outer core?
He didnt just discover 'a boundary' between mantle and outer core. He provided the first reasonable accounting of Earths interior (proved the thought that the earth was in layers and not just a homogenous planet). He was also the first to estimate the temperature and physical properties of the earths core, which is why the boundary is called after him. He first discovered the layers through seismic waves from earthquakes, realising they had different magnitudes and intensity because they must have had to go through layers before reaching the surface as well as depending where the epicentre is.
What is it called when two plates collide?
Convergent boundary
