Usually you get VIOLENT earthquakes on a Conservative Boundary. (No Volcanoes)

An example of one of these boundaries is the San Andreas Fault, California, USA.

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.


A transform fault boundary occurs where two plates what?

Transform fault boundaries happen at the site where two tectonic plates move past each other in opposite directions. The two plates will grind past each other, breaking off pieces of crust from the plates. The plates can get caught on each other and pressure will build up until a break develops and the plates will lurch forward.


This occurs when plates are pushed in opposite directions along a horizontal plane?

This describes a divergent boundary, where tectonic plates are moving away from each other along a horizontal plane. This movement typically leads to the formation of new crust as magma rises to fill the gap created by the moving plates.


What happens when two plates pass each other in opposite directions?

Normally when two plates pass each other they create earthquakes and faults. When two plates pass each other the type of boundary the have is called a Transform Boundary.


Which type of plate movement occurs at transform boundaries?

At transform boundaries, the plates slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. This movement creates friction between the plates, which can cause earthquakes.

What occurs when two plates collide and one of the plates dips below the other?

It is called subduction. When subduction occurs one plate slips beneath the other and sinks into the Earth's mantle and creates a trench.
