What type of plate boundary does pacific and N American plate form?
The Pacific Plate and the North American Plate form a transform plate boundary where they slide past each other horizontally. This boundary is known as the San Andreas Fault system in California.
At what type of boundary do hot-spot volcanoes form at?
Hot-spot volcanoes form at intraplate boundaries, where a plume of hot magma rises from deep within the mantle, creating volcanic activity away from tectonic plate boundaries.
How did grimsvotn form?
Found from research, the Grimsvotn Volcano in Iceland is located on a plate boundary, like most volcanoes. But it's located on a divergent plate boundary, meaning the tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new crust material.
What kind of plate boundary does a plateau form on?
A plateau can form on a convergent plate boundary where two plates collide, causing uplift and compression of the crust. It can also form on a divergent plate boundary where two plates move apart, leading to the stretching and thinning of the crust, creating a high, flat landform.
What does the collision of one plate with another form?
A convergent boundary
What plates are responsible for creating the Andes?
The Nazca and the S.American plate form a destructive plate boundary, forming the Andes.
What kind of plate boundary causes mountains to form?
The plate boundary that causes mountains to form is called a convergent boundary.
What does a transformational plate boundary form?
A transformational plate boundary forms earthquakes.
What type of plate boundary does pacific and N American plate form?
The Pacific Plate and the North American Plate form a transform plate boundary where they slide past each other horizontally. This boundary is known as the San Andreas Fault system in California.
What causes to form at a convergent plate boundary?
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.
At what type of boundary do hot-spot volcanoes form at?
Hot-spot volcanoes form at intraplate boundaries, where a plume of hot magma rises from deep within the mantle, creating volcanic activity away from tectonic plate boundaries.
What boundary does new crust form at?
Divergent plate boundary.
In which plate boundary do foliated metamorphic rocks form?
Usually in convergent plate boundary scenarios.
What causes Magma to form a convergent plate boundary?
the mid ocean ridges cause the magma to form at a convergent plate boundary.
What type of plate boundary form of mountains?
Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
How did grimsvotn form?
Found from research, the Grimsvotn Volcano in Iceland is located on a plate boundary, like most volcanoes. But it's located on a divergent plate boundary, meaning the tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new crust material.
How is similar divergent plate boundary and transform plate boundary?
They are similar because they both form volcanoes and earthquakes.
