What is it called when plates are moving toward each other?

This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.

What is it called when two plates move towards each other When they move together What is the motion called?

When two plates move towards each other, it is called convergence. The motion during convergence is usually called subduction if one plate is forced beneath the other, or collision if the two plates collide and form mountain ranges.


Where do plates move past each other?

The place were two plates move past each other is called a transform boundary. This motion does not produce any mountains, but it can create large earthquakes.


What is that call when two plates are moving from each other?

When two plates move away from each other it is called a divergent plate boundary because they are dividing.


What is it called when the plates are moving toward each other?

When tectonic plates move toward each other, it is known as a convergent boundary. This movement can result in subduction, where one plate is forced beneath the other, or in the collision of two plates, leading to the formation of mountain ranges.


Plates on the surface move away from each other?

They are called divergent plate boundaries.


What is it called when plates of the earth move towards each other or collide?

fault line


What are three ways tectonic plates interact with each other?

When plates slide past each other, move toward each other, and move away from each other.


What are plates moving toward each other?

Plates that move toasted each other are detractive plates meeting at a destructive margin. If a continental and an oceanic plate move towards each other, earthquakes and volcanoes occur, this is called a subduction margin, but if the plates are both continental then fold mountains form this is a collision margin
