What 3 tectonic plates contain mostly SIMA?
The three tectonic plates that contain mostly SIMA (silicate and magnesium-rich rock) are the Pacific Plate, the Philippine Sea Plate, and the Juan de Fuca Plate. These plates are characterized by their oceanic crust composition, which is primarily made up of SIMA.
What are 3 different convergenrt plate boundaries in the world?
Three real world Convergent Boundaries are the Himalayan mountain range where the Indian Plate smashed into the Eur-Asian plate about 250 million years ago. Another convergent boundary is Pacific Plate pushing against the North American Plate.(West side, California, Vancouver, Alaska, Ect.) A third convergent boudary is that of the Carribian, and the Pacific Plate. I really hope this helped you satisfy a curiosity, of help you on a school or work paper. Happy Holidays, Chuck Norris P.S. My tears can cure cancer, too bad I don't cry!
How many major tectonic plates in the US?
There are three major tectonic plates that influence the United States: the North American Plate, the Pacific Plate, and the Juan de Fuca Plate. These plates interact at plate boundaries, leading to geological activity such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Give examples of where the three types of plate movements occur?
Divergent plate boundary: The Mid-Atlantic Ridge where the Eurasian Plate and North American Plate are moving apart. Convergent plate boundary: The Andes Mountains where the South American Plate is colliding with the Nazca Plate. Transform plate boundary: The San Andreas Fault in California where the Pacific Plate and North American Plate are sliding past each other.
Is the north American plate divergent transform or convergent?
A plate is not classified as convergent, divergent, or transform, a plate boundary i.e. a boundary between plates is. All three types of plate boundary can be found along the edges of the North American plate.
What are the Three plates?
One of them is The pacific plate
What are the names of the three tectonic plates in the Tonga Trench?
The Tonga Trench is primarily associated with three tectonic plates: the Pacific Plate, the Indo-Australian Plate, and the smaller Tonga Plate. The Pacific Plate is being subducted beneath the Indo-Australian Plate, creating the trench. The Tonga Plate plays a role in the complex interactions in this region, contributing to the geological activity.
What continent is Pakistan Afghanistan and India found on?
All these three countries are situated in Asia.
What is the name of the three tectonic plates that lie near Kobe?
The three tectonic plates near Kobe are the Eurasian Plate, the Philippine Sea Plate, and the Pacific Plate. These plates interact at the boundaries near Kobe, contributing to the region's seismic activity.
What are three Islamic countries in the Asia pacific?
Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei
Does the pacific ocean border three other countries beside the US?

What cities are on tectonic plate boundaries?
Some cities on tectonic plate boundaries include Tokyo, Japan (Pacific Plate), San Francisco, USA (Pacific Plate), Istanbul, Turkey (Anatolian Plate), and Mexico City, Mexico (North American Plate). These cities are at risk of earthquakes and other seismic activities due to their proximity to tectonic plate boundaries.
What does the north American plate consist?
The North American Plate is made up of a thick granitic core that extends from the Atlantic Ridge to the Pacific Plate. The North American Plate drifts to the northwest two to three centimeters a year.

What is colima volcanoes plate bondary?
The Colima volcano comes from the intersection of three different tectonic plates. The oceanic plates Cocos and Rivera intersect in a rift zone, which is subducted beneath the continental plate, the North American Plate, at the Middle American Trench.
Name three countries found in Oceania that are in the Pacific Ocean?
Three examples are: Fiji (in Melanesia) Kiribati (in Micronesia) Samoa (in Polynesia)
