Plates rubbing past each other is known as a transform boundary.
Convergent tectonic plates are plates that are moving toward each other.
Fault lines
Continental plates are tectonic plates. They are tectonic plates upon which continents rest, and they move as do all tectonic plates. Basically, there is no difference, other than the fact that oceanic plates are another type of tectonic plate.

Convergent Boundary
They are called a Plate Boundaries :)
The place where two tectonic plates move away from each other horizontally are called divergent plate boundaries.

Tectonic plates- it relates to Alfred Wagener's theory of continental drift
I'm guessing you're talking about the tectonic plates? Divergence.
Anywhere there are tectonic plates, and when two tectonic plates hit each other
Tectonic movement
