A divergent plate boundary.
The lithosphere is the crust and upper mantle of the Earth. A good sentence would be, he wanted to study the lithosphere.
Andes, convergence between South American Plate and Pacific Plate
Volcanoes are most commonly associated with the top plate in subduction zones.
An ocean mountain is a mountain that is completely underwater. If measured from sea level, it would have a negative height.

The man crossed the boundary, therefore he was disqualified.
A convergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move towards each other, resulting in the collision or subduction of one plate beneath the other. This boundary often leads to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity.

A convergent boundary forms when an oceanic plate is pushed under a continental plate. This process, known as subduction, can result in the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
The western coast of South America is a very good example of an oceanic to continental convergent boundary where the Nazca plate is colliding (and being subducted beneath) the South American plate.
Tectonic plates that are convergent are "crashing into" each other at this collision boundary, and a subduction zone there is possible. One of the plates will "dive under" the other one. This creates uplift, "hot spots" or volcanic "risers" and instability along the boundary. The west coast of the United States is a good example. A link is provided below.
A divergent plate boundary.
cousine transform orthogonality is good
In part, yes, there is. The Pacific plate and North American (yes, the North American) plate converge off the east coast of Japan's northern islands. Further south, the Phillipine plate and Eurasian plate get into the act. Use the link below to check out a post and a pretty good map of the action. The link is to Wikipedia, and they've got the goods.
convergence plate boundary, where tectonic plates move towards each other and collide, leading to subduction zones which are highly constructive regions of volcanoes. Volcanoes also form at divergent plate boundaries. A good example being the numerous Icelandic volcanoes which have formed over he Mid Atlantic Ridge.
