What type of plate boundaries exist today?
divergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move apart from each other. convergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move towards each other so that one plate can sink beneath the other. transform plate boundary- a boundary where one plate slips along side another plate.
What plate boundaries move away from each other?
The kind of plate boundary that moves apart is a Divergent Plate Boundary
How are plate boundaries classified?
They are classified based on the vector of relative plate motion at the boundary. For example a boundary where the plates are moving away from each other is a divergent boundary, one where they are moving towards each other is a convergent boundary and one in which they are sliding past each other is a transform boundary.
What do you call the plate boundary where plates are moving away from each other?
divergent boundary
What slides past each other?
There are lot of different things that can slide each other for example in science we learn about the plate boundaries and one of them is transform boundaries that grind or slides each other.
What type of plate boundary exists?
divergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move apart from each other. convergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move towards each other so that one plate can sink beneath the other. transform plate boundary- a boundary where one plate slips along side another plate.
What type of boundary where one plate slides under another?
It is a convergent boundary, where two plates move towards/collide/converge into each other. The lighter plate will then float above the denser plate. The part of the denser plate which sank will subduct then melt and become a magma chamber.This boundary is also known as a destructive boundary.

What would happen when two plates meets?
When two plates meet each other thats called a Convergent boundary. They include areas where an oceanic plate slides below a continential plate.
What plate boundaries move away from each other?
The kind of plate boundary that moves apart is a Divergent Plate Boundary
What happen when crust slides past each other?
its called a transform boundary
How are plate boundaries classified?
They are classified based on the vector of relative plate motion at the boundary. For example a boundary where the plates are moving away from each other is a divergent boundary, one where they are moving towards each other is a convergent boundary and one in which they are sliding past each other is a transform boundary.
Convergent boundary three types are what?
Converging (destructive) plate boundary: where two plates collide. Diverging (constructive) plate boundary: where two plates move away from each other. Transform plate boundary: where two plates move, or grind, past each other. Like the boundary in California.
Which boundary am i when plates collide into each other i can create mountains?
A destructive plate boundary.
What do we call the plate boundary where plates are moving away from each other?
divergent boundary
What do we call the plate boundary where plates are moving towards each other?
Convergence Boundary.
What do you call the plate boundary where plates are moving away from each other?
divergent boundary
