Forms when two Crustal Lithospheric Plates come together?
The Convergent/Converging Boundaries
What floor feature forms when two oceanic plates collide?
deep sea trench
Why volcano is a geomorphic process?
it moves crustal materials from place to place
New oceanic lithosphere forms as a result of?
New oceanic lithosphere forms as a result of continental drift.
Earth does not get bigger as new oceanic crust forms?
Just as new oceanic crust forms at mid-ocean ridges, old oceanic crust is destroyed at subduction zones.
What feature forms at diverging oceanic plates?
Ridges of buoyant oceanic crust form at diverging oceanic plate boundaries.
Forms when two Crustal Lithospheric Plates come together?
The Convergent/Converging Boundaries
Forms when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other?
A transform boundary is formed when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. The movement at these boundaries is typically characterized by frequent earthquakes due to the friction between the two plates as they slide. An example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California.
Is true or false oceanic lithosphere is created at divergent boundaries?
Yes; at divergent/constructive boundaries, plates move apart and new oceanic lithosphere forms.
At a divergent boundary what feature forms when two oceanic plates are involved?
An oceanic trench is formed. Divergent boundaries pull away from each other, forming a cavern in the ocean floor. The Marianas Trench is a good example of a divergent boundary.
What forms on oceanic convergent boundaries?
I think its either a Trench or mountains/Volcanoes.
What forms where an oceanic plate begins to move down in a subduction zone?
Convergent Boundaries
What forms where a oceanic plate begins to move down in a subduction zone?
Convergent Boundaries
When two oceanic plates collide what physical feature forms?
Mountains and grass
What floor feature forms when two oceanic plates collide?
deep sea trench
What happens to magma divergent boundaries?
At divergent boundaries, two plates move apart from each other and the space that this creates is filled with new crustal material sourced from molten magma that forms below.
What are two ways volcanoes can forms near converging plate boundaries?
Volcanoes may form where two oceanic plates collide or where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate.
