What else can I help you with?
How is chimney rock formed?
I believe it is made out of sedimentary rock.
A reverse fault is formed by what type of tectonic plate boundary?
A reverse fault is typically formed at a convergent plate boundary where two tectonic plates are colliding. The movement along the fault results in one block of rock moving up and over the other block.
What type of plate boundary is Hekla the volcano formed?
A diverging is the type of plate boundary that the Hekla volcano formed. Hekla last erupted in 2000. It is located in Iceland. ADDED. Also called a "constructive" plate boundary, because the upwelling magma adds rock to the edges of the two plates.
Chimney rock was formed from what type of erosion?
Chimney Rock was formed by differential erosion, which is the process of some rock layers eroding more quickly than others due to variations in their resistance to weathering and erosion. Over time, this differential erosion shaped the distinctive spire-like structure of Chimney Rock.
What type of boundary is along ocean ridges?
Constructive or divergent. The ridge formed is of basaltic rock type (though this is a generalisation), and is a source of volcanic activity. Iceland was formed as a result of the sea-floor spreading.
What landform will be formed at this type of convergent plate boundary?
A landform that can be formed at a convergent plate boundary is a mountain range. This occurs when two continental plates collide, pushing up rock layers and creating uplifted peaks. Examples include the Himalayas formed by the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate.

This type of boundary forms when the crust of one plate is being pushed down and turned into molten rock?
The type of boundary that forms when the crust of one plate is pushed down under another plate and turned into molten rock is referred to as a convergent boundary. Convergent boundaries form when oceanic crust slides beneath continental crust.

Why is a plate boundary an active place for rock formation?
i have no clue!
What type of plate stress twists a rock?
Usually occurs at plate boundary collision areas.
What type of boundary is along ocean ridges?
Constructive or divergent. The ridge formed is of basaltic rock type (though this is a generalisation), and is a source of volcanic activity. Iceland was formed as a result of the sea-floor spreading.
Which type of boundary do most earthquakes occur why?
Plate boundaries around Japan are convergent boundaries ie two plates are sliding towards each other. Japan has been formed as a result of the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate beneath the continental Amurian Plate and Okinawa Plate to the south, and subduction of the Pacific Plate under the Okhotsk Plate to the north.
Where is volcano rock found?
Volcano rock near volcano's, which are found near plate boundary's.
What is a crack in the rock at a plate boundary called?
If there is movement of rock along this crack, then it is called a fault.
