I learned that plate boundaries are classified into three main types: divergent, convergent, and transform. Divergent boundaries occur where tectonic plates move apart, leading to the formation of new crust, often seen at mid-ocean ridges. Convergent boundaries happen when plates collide, resulting in geological features like mountains or deep ocean trenches, while transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other, causing earthquakes. These interactions significantly shape the Earth's surface and influence geological activity.

What type of boundary is mount wrangell on?
Mount Wrangell is situated on a convergent plate boundary, specifically where the Pacific Plate is subducting beneath the North American Plate. This boundary is associated with the formation of the Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Range of mountains.
What are the names of 3 specific tectonic plates?
Unsure but Alfred Wegener invented them/studies them so try looking him up.
What are the names of the four plate bounderies?
The four plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates move towards each other; transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally; and subduction zones, where one plate is forced beneath another plate.
How did mt st Helen form?
It was formed from converget bounderies.
What does convergent bounderies mean?
Convergent boundaries are where tectonic plates move towards each other. This movement can result in the plates colliding, causing subduction (one plate moving under the other), or in the plates crumpling and creating mountain ranges. These boundaries are associated with seismic activity and volcanic eruptions.
What symbol indicates plate bounderies?

What are three types of bounderies?
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
What tectonic feature are the vast majority of earthquakes associated with?
Quick answer: Plate Bounderies.

What moves do arceus learn with plates?
It doesn't learn any different moves when holding a plate, it just changes its type according to the plate it's holding.
What happens to the bounderies in an earthquake?
they shake and jolt maddly
