Convergent boundary three types are what?

Converging (destructive) plate boundary: where two plates collide. Diverging (constructive) plate boundary: where two plates move away from each other. Transform plate boundary: where two plates move, or grind, past each other. Like the boundary in California.

Distinguish between converging and diverging tectonic plates in a table form?

The Earth's crust is broken up into several lithospheric or tectonic plates. These plates are constantly moving atop the Earth's mantle (semi-solid layer of molten rocks). Based upon their motion, tectonic plates are referred to as converging or diverging. Converging tectonic plates move towards each other and form convergent boundary. Diverging tectonic plates move away from each other and form divergent boundary.


Is Hekla along converging plate boundaries?

Yes, Hekla volcano is located in Iceland, which lies along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge where the North American and Eurasian plates are diverging rather than converging. However, Hekla's location is influenced by Iceland's unique tectonic setting and hotspot activity, rather than traditional converging plate boundaries.

What type of plate boundary is foud where the gorda plate meets the north american plate?

The boundary between the Gorda plate and the North American Plate is a transform boundary. Transform boundaries that lie at near land are the most destructive, which is the case in Southern California, which is close to this plate boundary.


What plates make up the transform boundary?

There is more than one transform boundary, an example is the Scotia plate and the South American plate as well as the Juan de Fuca plate and the North American plate.
