What are the three types of plate tectonic boundries?
The three types of plate tectonic boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
Do transform plates move together or apart?
Transform plates are also known as "Spreading Plates." Therefore, they spread apart
What is a hypothesis for plate movement?
when pressure builds under the plates they move in opposite directions.
What direction plates tectonic move in?
The earth's plates move in all directions: up, down, and sideways. That's why we have mountains and subsidances and earthquakes and volcanoes and all sorts of stuff!
What directions do the plates move relative to one another at a divergent plate boundary?
they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away

Two plates move past each other in the opposite directions?
Transform Boundary
DO all the plates moving in the same direction?
Nope! They move in different directions which is why there are earthquakes.

What directions do tectonic plates move?
Tectonic plates can move in four main directions: convergent (towards each other), divergent (away from each other), transform (side by side), and oblique (combination of directions). These movements are driven by the Earth's internal heat and the circulation of molten rock in the mantle.
What direction plates tectonic move in?

What is the boundary where two plates move past each other in opposite directions?
Transform Boundary.
What are the three ways boundaries interact?
convergent boundaries: plates move together divergent boundaries: plates move apart transform boundaries: plates move against each other
How are the movement of plates are divergent boundaries and at transform boundaries similar?
They are not similar, divergent boundaries are where the move apart. transform boundaries are where the two plates rub together and move in opposite directions with great force.
What are the three types of earth's plates?
The three types of Earth's plates are convergent plates, where two plates move towards each other; divergent plates, where two plates move away from each other; and transform plates, where two plates slide past each other horizontally.
How do plates move at a transform boundary?
At a transform boundary, plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. This movement can cause earthquakes along the boundary.
