What is the area called where two tectonic plates meet?
the answer is a rift zone
Where two tectonic plates meet?
two tectonic plates meet usually at mid ocean ridges (eg Iceland) and at destructive plate boundaries (eg Japan).
What is the name of the places were the tectonic plates meet?
The places where tectonic plates meet are called plate boundaries. There are three main types of plate boundaries: convergent boundaries (plates moving towards each other), divergent boundaries (plates moving away from each other), and transform boundaries (plates sliding past each other).
Do tectonic plates meet where earthquakes often occur?
Yes, tectonic plates meet at their boundaries, where most earthquakes occur due to the movement and interaction of the plates. The two main types of plate boundaries that are associated with frequent seismic activity are transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other, and convergent boundaries, where plates collide or move towards each other.
How are tectonic plates related to the occurrence of earthquakes on a global map?
Tectonic plates are large pieces of the Earth's crust that float on the semi-fluid mantle below. When these plates move against each other, they can cause earthquakes. The boundaries where plates meet, such as at fault lines, are where most earthquakes occur. This relationship between tectonic plates and earthquakes is why seismic activity is often concentrated along plate boundaries on a global map.
What is the area where two tectonic plates meet?

What were boundaries?
Boundaries are where two tectonic plates meet.
A __ is where edges of tectonic plates meet?
plate boundary
What is the similarity between a fault and a fault zone?
A fault is where to tectonic plates meet but a fault zone is the area around a fault.

Does the volcanoes and earthquakes happen where tectonic plates meet?
yes
Where does subduction happen?
subduction occurs where 2 continents meet or where the tectonic plates meet. :)
Where would an earthquake take place?
Where the different tectonic plates meet
Where are volcanoes mountains and earthquake form?
Where two tectonic plates meet
What are tectonic plates how were continents formed?
these are the plates under the land and they are spins round and when they meet and they form the continents
Where do volcanoes mostly form?
Volcanoes usually form where tectonic plates meet.
Where do tectonic plates meet after they collide?
their local pub (cpap answer) :P lol
