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.
What forms when 2 oceanic plates move apart?
Some move away from each other and create massive trenches normally in the sea bed, for example the Mariana Trench - 10,998 m.
How are divergent and transform fault plates alike?
Divergent boundaries are when two plates move apart. Divergent Boundaries in the ocean is when the sea floor spreads as the oceanic plates move apart. This causes places like the oceanic ridge. Divergent boundaries on crust are when two pieces of crust move apart. This makes mountains and valleys. Transform Boundaries are formed when two plates shear against each other, like the San Andreas Fault in California. The only way they are alike is because both of them cause earthquakes.
Do transform plates move together or apart?
Transform plates are also known as "Spreading Plates." Therefore, they spread apart
Are there 3 or 4 types of plate boundaries?
There are four main types of plate boundaries: divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally; and plate boundary zones, which are complex regions with combinations of these boundary types.
What do plates move apart on?
Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.
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.
What do you get when the plates spread apart?
When the plates move apart they will more than likley create a large creak, Depending on how far they move apart. It would be a small creek.
What is it called when two lithospheric plates move apart?
Continental Plates
Where do plates move apart?
divergent boundarys
What are the three types of plate boudaries?
The three types of plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates collide; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
How do lithosphere plates move where convection currents rise?
They move apart.
What are 3 types of boundaries where plates connect?
There are 3 types of plate boundaries, but only one in of them do the plates "connect". There is a convergent boundary, in which two plates come together (or "connect"), a divergent boundary, where two plates move a apart, and a transform boundary, which is when two plates slide next to each other.
Do Earths Tetonic plates move apart?
Yes they do.
When two continental plates move apart?
earthquake!!!!!!
What boundry do plates move apart at?

When plates move apart it is known as what?
it is known as a earthquake
