Forms when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other?

A transform boundary is formed when two crustal lithospheric plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. The movement at these boundaries is typically characterized by frequent earthquakes due to the friction between the two plates as they slide. An example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California.


What forms when two crustal plates move apart?

an earthquake


What are converging boundaries?

A convergent boundary is when two plates collide with each other forming landforms like trenches, or mountains (depends which type of plates converge.)


What is sliding boundary?

forms when two {crustal} lithosphere plates move apart.


What forms from pools of magma that accumulate underground and push up on crustal plates?

dome


What forms when the lithospheric plates rub against each other?

well in a volcano the lithospheric plates meet when magma moves and moves at the bottom and in the magma chamber the lava[magma] is moving around the lithospheric plates thats what forms them but what forms when they rub against each other is a volcanic eruption


What factors are most important when determining the type of boundary that forms when two lithospheric plates collide?

i love it


What is the primary source of crustal deformation?

The primary source of crustal deformation is tectonic plate movement. The Earth's lithosphere is divided into several rigid plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. The interactions and collisions between these plates result in various forms of crustal deformation such as folding, faulting, and mountain building.


What forms when two lithospheric plates move apart?

When two lithospheric plates move apart, a divergent boundary is formed. This process results in the creation of new oceanic crust as magma rises to fill the gap between the plates, forming a mid-ocean ridge.


What forms when plate push together?
