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.
Where do plates come together?
The place where tectonic plates come together is named an Destructive Boundary
How are constructive and destructive forces alike?
(IF you mean constructive and destructive plates boudaries...)Constructive- Plates moving apart.Sometimes the earths plates move apart from one another. This is because of the convection currents that force them to move in opposite directionsMagma (from mantle, the thing underneath the earths crust) can escape. This can cause volcanoes. This magma cools and constructs new land like islands we can live on.Destructive-PLates moving together.When plates move together they sometimes don't agree.This happens when an oceanic plate meets a continental plate. The oceanic plate is lighter than the continental plate so has to go under the continental plate. As it goes under it gets destroyed because it is so hot! and because constructive is a volcano making land and destructive destroying the land
What are plates that move towards each other?
Plates that move toasted each other are detractive plates meeting at a destructive margin. If a continental and an oceanic plate move towards each other, earthquakes and volcanoes occur, this is called a subduction margin, but if the plates are both continental then fold mountains form this is a collision margin
What are the names of the four plate bounderies?
The four plate boundaries are divergent boundaries, where plates move apart; convergent boundaries, where plates move towards each other; transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally; and subduction zones, where one plate is forced beneath another plate.
Is plate movement destructive?
When two plates move together damaging both of the plates causing a large earthquake.
This is also known as destructive boundary?
A destructive boundary is a certain type of boundary of a tectonic plate. Destructive boundaries make the plates move toards each other and eventually collide. This is why they are often called collision boundaries.
What are the types plate?
The 3 general types are constructive, destructive, and conservative boundaries. Constructive (divergent) - plates move away from each other, typically creating a rift Destructive (convergent) - one plate will be subducted, or continental plates collide Conservative (transform) - plates grind past each other, stalling and slipping

What are name of the three sub-classes of tectonic plates?
The three main types of tectonic plate boundaries are convergent boundaries, where plates move toward each other; divergent boundaries, where plates move away from each other; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.

What are the destructive effects of the earthquakes?
the crashing of the plates cause the plates to break and crack
Convergent boundary three types are what?
Converging (destructive) plate boundary: where two plates collide. Diverging (constructive) plate boundary: where two plates move away from each other. Transform plate boundary: where two plates move, or grind, past each other. Like the boundary in California.
What are the three types of plate margins?
The three types of plate margins are convergent boundaries, where plates move toward each other; divergent boundaries, where plates move apart from each other; and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally.
