The boundaries between two colliding plates are called .?
The boundaries between two colliding plates is called a convergent boundary. Earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries, a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle.
What is the border across which genes can flow between two populations called?
The border across which genes can flow between two populations is called a "gene flow barrier." This barrier can be physical, such as a mountain range or river, or it can be due to behavioral or ecological factors that limit gene exchange between populations.
What do you notice about the location of earthquakes and the plates that make up the earth's surface?
Earthquakes tend to occur at the boundaries of tectonic plates, where the plates interact. This is because the movement and interaction of these plates cause stress to build up within the Earth's crust, which is released as seismic waves during an earthquake. The specific type of boundary (e.g., convergent, divergent, transform) will influence the nature and intensity of the earthquake activity in that region.
What is an imaginary line that separates two countries?
-transform boundary -convergent boundary -subduction zoone -divergent boundary -mid-ocean ridge -rift valley ...these are some possible answers to your question.
Boundary between two plates that are moving apart?
Convergent: plates move into one another.Divergent: plates move apart.Transform: plates move sideways in relation to each other.
What is the border between the plates?
The boarder between two plates is called a boundary.
What is a boundary between two states or nations called?
It is called the border. There are border crossing set up on most of them to control who comes in or out of the country.
What is the boundary between two moving plates called?
h
What is boundary between China and Mongolia called?
The Border between the two countries separating Russia and China is just that a Border line.
Boundaries between plates?
There are 3 main types of boundaries between plates: Convergent- when two plates are coming together (mostly form mountains) Divergent- when two plates are moving apart (mostly form rift valleys) Transform- when two plates slide past one another (also called strike-slip)
What type of motion occurred between the two plates?
A convergent boundary can form between two plates and a divergent boundary can be created between two plates, then two plates rubbing together create earthquakes, many are very minor. A convergent boundary is two plates pushing together to form a mountain, hill, or volcano. Divergent plates move apart and create canyons and stuff.
Where are two locations where two continental plates collide?
in Iraq-Iran border and in India
The boundaries between two colliding plates are called .?
The boundaries between two colliding plates is called a convergent boundary. Earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries, a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle.
What two plates does California border?
Pacific and North American Plate
What is a border separating two Countries called?
A border separating two countries is called an international border or a national border.
What is a line dividing two places?
A dividing line between two places is usually called a border.
What boundary between two plates that are moving away from each other called?
divergent plate
