What type of plate boundary does pacific and N American plate form?
Convergent plate boundary.
How did grimsvotn form?
Found from research, the Grimsvotn Volcano in Iceland is located on a plate boundary, like most volcanoes. But it's located on a divergent plate boundary, meaning the tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new crust material.
What happens when oceanic and continental plates collide?
At this type of convergent boundary the oceanic plate will be subducted, or sink into the mantle underneath the continental plate. Volcanoes often form near these boundaries.
Can a volcano form far from plate boundary?
NO
At what type of boundary do hot-spot volcanoes form at?
Tectonic plate boundary
What plates are responsible for creating the Andes?
The Nazca and the S.American plate form a destructive plate boundary, forming the Andes.
What type of plate boundary does pacific and N American plate form?
Convergent plate boundary.
What does a transformational plate boundary form?
A transformational plate boundary forms earthquakes.
What causes to form at a convergent plate boundary?
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.
What boundary does new crust form at?
Divergent plate boundary.
In which plate boundary do foliated metamorphic rocks form?
Usually in convergent plate boundary scenarios.
What causes Magma to form a convergent plate boundary?
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.

What type of plate boundary form of mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
Can a volcano form far from plate boundary?
NO
How is similar divergent plate boundary and transform plate boundary?
They are similar because they both form volcanoes and earthquakes.
