What is the plate tectonic boundary type when plates move alongside each other?
Transform Boundary
What is the boundary when two tectonic plates separate from each other?
Divergent Boundary. That is when the plates seperate. Convergent Boundary is when they collide. Transform Boundary is when they slide past each other.
The difference between a transform and convergent boundary?
Convergent Boundary is a result of two tectonic plates colliding. Divergent boundary is the process where to tectonic plates move away from each other. if two tectonic plates move away from each other (diverge), each will collide with another plate (converge) on the opposite side of the divergent boundary, forming a convergent boundary with another tectonic plate.
What is a boundary where two tectonic plates move away from each other leaving a newly constructed ridge in between?
divergent boundary
What is a Divergent plate boundary and what happens?
A divergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move away from each-other.
What isn't a tectonic plate boundary?
Any area where two or more tectonic plates do not touch each other is a not a tectonic plate boundary.
What is a boundary between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other?

What name is given to the boundary where two tectonic plates pull away from each other?
This is known as a divergent boundary.
What happens when tectonic plates slide past each other?
What occurs when the plates slide each other is a boundary forming. this boundary is called a transform boundary.
What is it called when two tectonic plates pushes into each other?
Convergent Boundary
What is compressional stress?
Compressional stress is the stress produced by two tectonic plates moving towards each other.
What is a boundary where two tectonic plates move away from each other leaving a newly constructed ridge in between?
divergent boundary
What is a Divergent plate boundary and what happens?
A divergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move away from each-other.
Tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally?
Transform boundary
