If an anticline appears what type of plate boundary could it be found in?
Convergent plate boundary.
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 type of plate boundary is regional metamorphism found?
convergent
What type of plate boundary is associated with a pull-apart rift zone?
What you call a pull apart rift zone is what is called a divergent boundary. Most divergent zones are located under water and are a zone where new oceanic crust is born. One location where a divergent zone can be seen on land can be found in Iceland.
Why Icelandic disasters are not expected in Tibet?
Icelandic disasters are not expected in Tibet because of the climate. Iceland has a different boundary than Tibet so volcanoes errupt in Iceland. Tibet has a different kind of boundary from Iceland so it causes earthquakes.
Is Iceland on a Destructive plate boundary?
No, Iceland is on a constructive plate boundary.
What type of plate boundary runs across iceland?
Iceland is situated on a divergent plate boundary known as the Mid Atlantic Ridge. Please see the related links.
What type of plate boundary formed the volcanic island of Surtsey off the southern coast of Iceland?
Constructive
At what type of plate boundary are strike-slip faults found near?
A certain type of strike-slip fault is found at a transform plate boundary.
Is iceland an example of divegent boundary?
no
What type of plate boundary is most likely found in the Atlantic Ocean?
Divergent Boundary

What is an example of a volcano on a diverging plate boundary?
The Bárðarbunga volcano in Iceland (currently erupting) is an example. A diverging plate boundary passes through the island of Iceland.
What type of boundary is compression stress found at?
Convergent boundaries.
What type of plate is found at a divergent boundary?
a tectonic plate
