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).
Where two tectonic plates meet?
two tectonic plates meet usually at mid ocean ridges (eg Iceland) and at destructive plate boundaries (eg Japan).
What do you call the area where two tectonic plates meet?
The area where two tectonic plates meet is called a plate boundary. At plate boundaries, interactions between the plates can result in processes like subduction, seafloor spreading, or continental collision.
Does breaks in the crust called faults form where plates meet?
Yes, faults are breaks in the Earth's crust where plates meet. These breaks allow movement to occur along the plate boundaries, resulting in earthquakes as the plates slide past each other.
What kind of plate boundary is found where the North America and Caribbean plates meet?
The North America and Caribbean plates meet at a transform plate boundary. This type of boundary is characterized by plates sliding past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes along the boundary.
What is 2 collision of 2 oceanic plates?

What is created when 2 plates meet?

Where does subduction happen?

Why do oceanic plates and a continental plates meet?

What happens when 2 plates meet and one descends on the other?
Both plates shatter and fall on the floor in pieces. You need to be more careful!

What does the ring of fire have to do with earthquackes?
"The ring of fire" is the name given to tectonic plates that meet in a circular fashion with the Pacific ocean in the middle. These plates tend to move around causing earthquakes.
Where two plates meet , this is called a?
Places, where plates meet, are called plate boundaries. There are seven significant plates along with countless minor plates. You can see that a plate can be made of both oceanic crust and continental crust. Interactions between the plates change our planet.
What surface feature is formed where two plates meet?
The surface feature formed when two plates meet is known as a fault. In some cases mountains can also be formed when two plates collide.
What is the place where plates meet?
Fault lines
