What else can I help you with?
What happens when two plates pull away from each other in opposite directions?
When any fault occurs or tectonic plates pull away from each other under the ground. An earthquake happens.
What happens when plates separate from each other?
Ridges, called spreading centers, happen where two plates move away from each other. As the plates separate, molten mantle material (magma/melted rock) flows up to fill the void.
Can two plates moving away from each other form a volcano?
Yes, but no with each other. They can meet other plates.
What happens to spreading boundaries?
SPREADING ZONES Spreading zone occurs in the border of two tectonic plates. This happens when the plates generally move away from each other creating an opening for the magma to force through the surface.
What happens when plates collide but no subduction occurs?
they hug each other
What happens when two plates pull away from each other in opposite directions?

What happens at a divergant boundry?
The plates slide across from each other. By that I mean away from each other and they can make earthquakes and mountains!
Do volcanoes erupt when earths plates move?
Well, when earths plates move away from each other that's when it happens but move well then NO!
What happens on a divergent plate boundary?
the two plates are moving away from each other, and new crust is formed.

Can two plates moving away from each other form a volcano?
Yes, but no with each other. They can meet other plates.
When two geologic plates are moving away from each other what happens?
When it is two continental plates, new oceanic crust is formed, and when this continues, more oceanic crust is formed between the plates.
What is it called when two plates move away from each other?
When two plates move away from each other it makes a falt line or a riffed. -bekahcboo
What are three ways tectonic plates interact with each other?
When plates slide past each other, move toward each other, and move away from each other.
How does the continental drift form?
Continental drift is what happens when the Earth's plates shift either towards or away from the other plates. Earthquakes occur when two of the plates bump into each other. It happens when the magma from within the Earth rises up and pushes the plates, due high pressure they pose. That's the best I can do.

What happens when plates collide into each other?
It creates mountians
