Boundary activities, such as tectonic plate interactions, occur primarily at plate boundaries, which can be found in various locations around the world. These include divergent boundaries, where plates move apart (like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge), convergent boundaries, where plates collide (such as the Himalayas), and transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other (like the San Andreas Fault). Additionally, these activities can also be observed in regions prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, often related to the dynamics of these plate boundaries.

What kind of plate boundary does subduction take place at?

Subduction takes place at a convergent plate boundary, where two tectonic plates collide and one plate is forced beneath the other into the Earth's mantle. This process is associated with the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs.


How can you know the location and kinds of plate boundaries on earth and is there a plate boundary on earth and is there a plate boundary near out area?

You know the location of a plate boundary by how the rocks and other geological features are in a curtain area, for example earthquakes and volcanoes are very common near a boundary. We can tell what kind of boundary it is by the way the ground is moving, if the ground is moving away from the boundary it is most likely a divergent boundary, and if the ground is moving towards the boundary it is likely to be a convergent. I hope that helped


What is the place where two tectonic plates slide past each other other horizontally?

That is a Strike-slip fault. This type of plate boundary is a relatively conservative boundary because the plates moves side by side horizontally causing little or no destruction of old plates or creation of new plates, but only causes a kind of boundary known as a Transform Boundary. An example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas fault, in California, USA North America.


What plate boundaries move away from each other?

The kind of plate boundary that moves apart is a Divergent Plate Boundary


Kind of boundary when two plates slide past each other?

A transform boundary. This is where tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other in opposite directions. This movement can cause earthquakes along the boundary.

What kind of metamorphism might take place at a divergent boundary?

When a divergent boundary occurs beneath oceanic lithosphere, the rising convection current below lifts the lithosphere producing a mid-ocean ridge!!!Hope i helped.
