What are the 4 plates in plate boundaries?
The Are Seven Primary Plates, so there cannot be only Five Boundaries, I know the tectonic Plates are The 1. African Plate 2. Antarctic Plate 3. Eurasian Plate 4. Indo-Australian Plate 5. North American Plate 6. Pacific Plate 7. South American Plate There Are Three Basic types of boundary; Divergent, Convergent and Transform boundaries Hopefull somebody can tell you all their names of the boundaires between them because these different Plates will me touching two or More Plates hence a lot of different boundaries
Volcanic mountains such the Hawaiian islands can only be found along tectonic plate boundaries?
Volcanic mountains like the Hawaiian Islands primarily form over hotspots rather than at tectonic plate boundaries. The Hawaiian Islands were created by a stationary hotspot in the Earth's mantle that produces magma, which erupts to form volcanoes as the Pacific Plate moves over it. While many volcanic mountains are indeed found at convergent or divergent plate boundaries, hotspots can create volcanic islands far from these boundaries, as seen in Hawaii.
Which plate boundaries volcanoes are found along?
Volcanoes typically occur at two different types of plate boundaries. These two plate boundaries are: the diverging plate boundary where plates separate, and the converging plate boundaries where one plate is beneath another one at subduction zones.
What type of magma do you find at each of the different plate boundaries?
At divergent plate boundaries, you typically find basaltic magma. At convergent plate boundaries, where one plate is forced beneath another, you find andesitic to rhyolitic magma due to the melting of continental crust. At hot spots, which are unrelated to plate boundaries, you can find a variety of magma types depending on the composition of the mantle source.
What geologic processes and or phenomena is not found at transform plate boundaries?
At transform plate boundaries, processes like subduction and seafloor spreading do not occur. Instead, these boundaries are characterized by the sliding past of two tectonic plates horizontally. There is no creation or destruction of crust at transform boundaries, only sideways movement.
Are volcanoes only found on constructive plate boundaries?
No

What are the four types of plate boundaries?
The four types of plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally; and plate boundary zones, which encompass areas where interactions between multiple plates occur.
What type of magma do you find at each of the different plate boundaries?
At divergent plate boundaries, you typically find basaltic magma. At convergent plate boundaries, where one plate is forced beneath another, you find andesitic to rhyolitic magma due to the melting of continental crust.

Why are earthquakes created at plate boundaries?
It's the only place they can occur. Over a continuous, solid part of the tectonic plate, there are no earthquakes - if the plate shifts, it shifts as one whole unit - no earthquake (maybe an ominous rumble or quiver, but that's about it). At boundaries, shift causes one edge to collide with another. Something's got to give. One or the other plate has to move up, down, forward or back. Any of those are called an "earthquake".
Which is the only plate that has all margins as convergent boundaries?
The Pacific Plate is completely surrounded by a convergent boundary (Ring of Fire).
What type of plate boundary are most earthquakes found at?
All three type of Earthquakes (Shallow-seated, Medium-seated and Deep-seated) occur only at the Convergent plate boundary. At divergent plate boundary we find mostly Shallow-seated Earthquakes only.
What are four types of plate boundaries?
There are only 3 that I know, transform, divergent, and convergent. -Toby Shout out to Mrs. Cordero
