What else can I help you with?
Can a convergent boundary turn into a divergent boundary?
No, convergent boundaries occur where plates move toward each other and collide or subduct, while divergent boundaries occur where plates move away from each other. It is not possible for a convergent boundary to turn into a divergent boundary because the underlying plate tectonics processes are fundamentally different.
What kind of boundary do tectonic plates make when they when they move away from each other?
boundaries where plates are moving away from each other are called constructive plate boundaries. These boundaries cause very minor volcanoes and are given their name because they make new land in where the lava solidifies in the gap between the plates. this usually occurs under the sea.
Landforms such as mountains rivers and valleys that make up the surface features of an area called?
geographical features
What plate boundaries make mountains?
convergent
What is most likely to make the boundaries between two continents?
The movement of tectonic plates is most likely to create the boundaries between two continents. When plates collide, separate, or slide past each other, it can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, rift valleys, or transform faults that mark the boundaries between continents.
Do divergent boundaries make volcanos?
Yes volcanos are formed on convergent and divergent plate boundries but NOT on transform boundries

What kind of landforms make up the altiplano?
The Fork Mountains make up the Altiplano.
What are at least three ways plate tectonics interact with each other?
Convergent Boundaries: At convergent boundaries, tectonic plates collide, leading to the formation of mountains, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes. Divergent Boundaries: At divergent boundaries, tectonic plates move apart, causing the formation of new oceanic crust, rift valleys, and volcanic activity. Transform Boundaries: At transform boundaries, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, resulting in earthquakes along fault lines.
Describe what happens in three different kinds of plates collisions?
When plates collide, plate boundaries are formed. There are three kinds. At divergent boundaries, two tectonic plates move away from each other and make earthquakes. At convergent boundaries, two plates come together and make mountain ranges. At transform boundaries, one plate slides under the other.
Where are the most plate bounderies?
Fault lines.
The large region around lake titicaca is called the altiplano what kind of landforms make up the altiplano?
cheese
What plate boundaries make up the earths crust layer?
All of them. Divergent (spreading ridges), convergent (subduction zones), and transform (strike-slip). An example of each include the following: Divergent: Mid-Atlantic spreading ridge Convergent: Cascade Arc Transform: San Andreas Fault
What can landforms make?
it can make a stack
Does Divergent Boundary make lakes?
NO
What observations can you make about the relationship between volcanoes and plate boundaries?
Volcanoes are often located at plate boundaries due to the movement and interaction of tectonic plates. At convergent boundaries, one plate is forced beneath another in a process called subduction, leading to the formation of volcanic arcs. At divergent boundaries, magma rises to the surface, creating new crust and volcanic activity. Transform boundaries can also have volcanic activity associated with them, although it is less common.
