What are mountains associated with convergent plate boundaries?
The mountains that are associated with convergent plate boundaries are mountain ranges or mountain belts. Examples of a mountain range is the Andes.
What are the three types of faults and what type of plate boundary are they associated with?
The three types of faults are normal, reverse, and strike-slip faults. Normal faults are associated with divergent plate boundaries, reverse faults with convergent plate boundaries, and strike-slip faults with transform plate boundaries.
Do plate movements help drive the rock cycle to form volcanoes?
Yes. Most volcanoes on Earth are associated with plate boundaries.
What plate boundaries do hot spots from?
Hot spots are not directly associated with plate boundaries. Hot spots are areas of intense volcanic activity that are thought to be caused by mantle plumes rising from deep within the Earth's mantle, creating a hotspot of magma beneath the Earth's crust. These hotspots can occur in the middle of a tectonic plate and are responsible for creating volcanic island chains, such as the Hawaiian Islands.
What is the where 2 tectonic plates meet called?
a plate boundary there are constructive plate boundaries, destructive plate boundaries, conservative plate boundaries and collision plate boundaries
What are mountains associated with convergent plate boundaries?
The mountains that are associated with convergent plate boundaries are mountain ranges or mountain belts. Examples of a mountain range is the Andes.
What plate boundaries are associated with Sarychev Peak volcano?
Convergent
What are the three types of faults and what type of plate boundary are they associated with?
The three types of faults are normal, reverse, and strike-slip faults. Normal faults are associated with divergent plate boundaries, reverse faults with convergent plate boundaries, and strike-slip faults with transform plate boundaries.
What Natural Resources is plate made from?
glass
Where is earthquakes natural disaster most likely to occur?
On plate boundaries .
Is a volcano a convergent boundary?
No. A volcano is not a plate boundary. Most volcanoes on land are associated with convergent boundaries, but many are associated with divergent boundaries and others with hot spots.
Volcanic island arc are associated with what type of plate boundaries?
convergent oceanic oceanic
Deep-focus earthquakes are associated with what plate boundaries?
Deep-focus earthquakes are associated with convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide and one is forced to subduct beneath the other into the Earth's mantle. As the subducted plate descends deeper into the mantle, it can generate earthquakes at depths exceeding 300 kilometers.
Do convergent plate boundaries involve the process of rifting?
Yes, convergent plate boundaries involve the process of rifting where tectonic plates move apart, leading to the formation of new oceanic crust. This process typically occurs at divergent plate boundaries, such as mid-ocean ridges, rather than at convergent plate boundaries where plates collide or subduct.
How is volcanic activity associated with plate boundaries?
90% of volcanic activity on earth occurs at either convergent or divergent plate boundaries. The remaining 10% occurs at hot spots, which are not associated with plate boundaries.
What are three types of plate bounderys?
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
Do plate movements help drive the rock cycle to form volcanoes?
Yes. Most volcanoes on Earth are associated with plate boundaries.
