Convergent on the western perimeter, divergent on the Easter perimeter.
Between these two continents there is a divergent boundary.
divergent boundary
A divergent plate boundary.
Divergent boundary
It is a divergent boundary.
Transform boundary
It forms a convergent boundary with the South American Plate, divergent.
Andes, convergence between South American Plate and Pacific Plate
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is not actually a tectonic plate, but a divergent boundary between plates where new oceanic crust is being created on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. To the north, it marks the boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate. To the south, it separates the African Plate from the South American Plate.
The mid-ocean ridge is formed along a divergent or constructive plate boundary between two plates of oceanic crust. A classic example is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge where the Eurasian and African Plates are moving away from the North and South American Plates.
The North American and Eurasian Plates in the North Atlantic and the South American and African Plates in the South Atlantic border the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
It is a convergent/destructive plate boundary.
It forms a convergent boundary with the South American Plate, divergent.
It forms a convergent boundary with the South American Plate, divergent.
Oceanic crust is destroyed at a convergent boundary where subduction occurs. An example includes the boundary between the Nazca and South American plate on the west coast South America.
It is a convergent/destructive plate boundary.
The Andes are a result of the convergent boundary between the Nazca and South American Plate.
Boundary
It is located near the boundary between the South American and Nazca plates.
Andes, convergence between South American Plate and Pacific Plate
The type of boundary that the Andes mountains are, in South America, is a convergent plate boundary. This was formed from the collision of the South American plate boundary and the Nazca plate.
a mountainous one.
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is not actually a tectonic plate, but a divergent boundary between plates where new oceanic crust is being created on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. To the north, it marks the boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate. To the south, it separates the African Plate from the South American Plate.
