Features such as mountain ranges, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes are commonly formed along tectonic plate boundaries on continents. These boundaries can result in the uplift of land, the formation of volcanic mountains, and the release of seismic energy. Additionally, continental plate boundaries may also create deep oceanic trenches and transform faults.

Approximately how far east does the continent of Africa extend?
The continent of Africa extends eastward to the boundary with the Middle East, along the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The easternmost point of Africa is the country of Somalia, which lies near the Horn of Africa.
Is the great rift valley in Africa a divergent boundary?
Yes, the Great Rift Valley in Africa is primarily formed by the movement of tectonic plates along a divergent boundary. The African Plate and the Somali Plate are moving apart, causing the Earth's crust to stretch and crack, creating the rift valley.
Where is the Aleutian range located?
The Aleutian Range is located in Alaska, running along the Aleutian Islands in the Pacific Ocean. It is a volcanic mountain range formed by tectonic activity along the boundary between the North American and Pacific plates.
What is a flat land found along continent or coast?
the word is toscala aplin but I can,t unscramble it the answer is coastal plain
The continent that shares its eastern border with Asia?
Europe shares its eastern border with Asia. The boundary between Europe and Asia is commonly considered to run along the Ural Mountains, Ural River, Caspian Sea, and Black Sea.
When the ridge in the middle of the Atlantic ocean formed along what boundary?
Divergent boundary
What type of plate boundary creates a deep ocean trench along the edge of a continent?
the top part of the boundary it creates the the deep ocean trench along with the edge of a continent......:D
Crust is neither destroyed nor formed along which boundary?
Or
What type of boundary is along ocean ridges?
Constructive or divergent. The ridge formed is of basaltic rock type (though this is a generalisation), and is a source of volcanic activity. Iceland was formed as a result of the sea-floor spreading.
What is usually formed as a result of a collision between plates along a boundary?
mountains or earthquakes
What features is found along the divergent boundary?
Oceanic: Mid-ocean ridge Continental: Rift valley
How does a volcano erupt at a convergent boundary?
As an oceanic plate sinks into the mantle at a convergent boundary it causes rocks to melt. Some of the newly formed magma will migrate upward to volcanoes, that have formed along the convergent boundaries, and erupt.
The red sea was formed along what boundary?
Divergent boundaries because the plates are going away from one another.
What kind of boundary is located at the mid ocean ridge?
The mid-ocean ridge is formed along a divergent or constructive plate boundary between two plates of oceanic crust.
What features can be found along convergent boundaries?
Generally (I think probably always), a mountain range develops at a convergent boundary.
What is the plate boundary of Galeras Volcano?
Galeras Volcano is formed along Nazca and South American plates. It is a convergent boundary and is oceanic-continental. If you need more info. Go to geology.com
What topographical features can be found along convergent boundaries?
Generally (I think probably always), a mountain range develops at a convergent boundary.
