They either slide apart or slide together. If they slide apart, over millions of years they form oceans or things like the grand canyon. If they collide they form mountains and volcanos. They bump into each other and move away.
Tectonic plate interactions are of three different basic types: Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. Convergent boundaries are areas where plates move toward each other and collide.
The continents move by continental dirt which was hypothosized by Alfred Wegener who was dis-resepcted back then because people though it was impossible for the continents and plates to move. But, Wegener was right and he became very famous for discovering Pangaea which is German for "super-continent" , they my also be moved by earthquakes and other natural disasters.
The interaction areas between tectonic plates are called boundaries. There are three types of boundaries:Transform--where plates essentially grind past each other with no subduction.Convergent--where plates collide. Oceanic plate to oceanic plate convergence will result in the more dense plate subducting under the less dense plate.Divergent--where plates move apart. The major diverging plates are located at the mid-ocean ridge system where melting material from the asthenosphere fills in the separating plate zone, creating new crust.
When tectonic plates move, they can interact in different ways depending on the type of boundary between them. This movement can cause earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or the formation of mountains. It also plays a role in shaping the Earth's surface and affecting the distribution of continents and oceans over long periods of time.
Three ways with which humans interact with the environment include dependency for livelihood, to modify it and adapt to conditions.
One of the way is they move towards each other and converge,or collide
convergent boundaries: plates move together divergent boundaries: plates move apart transform boundaries: plates move against each other
They slide, move towards and move away from each.
When plates slide past each other, move toward each other, and move away from each other.
texting, calling, and talking in person
they move in all sorts of ways like the bottom and the top lol :}
Tectonic plates move from east to west as a whole due to the coreolis (not sure of spelling) effect.
They form mountains, volcanoes, and cause earth quakes.Tectonic plates move in many different ways. They either slide one on top of the other which causes volcanoes or scrape past each other creating earthquakes.
Im pretty sure its ridge push, slab pull, and mantle convection
Plates either move towards each other (convergent plates), away from each other (divergent plates) or slide next to each other (transform plates).
Plates move along a fault through transform boundaries, where they slide past each other horizontally. Plates can also move through divergent boundaries, where they move away from each other. Lastly, plates can move along convergent boundaries, where they collide and push against each other, leading to subduction or mountain formation.
example of these is the plates are moving in different ways and when it move the earthquake will occur
