A destructive plate boundary (WITH a subduction zone!)
The mid-ocean ridge system is the longest continuous divergent plate boundary on Earth.
Transform boundaries can be found along tectonic plate boundaries where two plates slide past each other horizontally. An example of a well-known transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California, USA.
At a convergent boundary, tectonic plates collide and create mountains, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity. On the other hand, at a divergent boundary, tectonic plates move apart and cause the formation of rift valleys, mid-ocean ridges, and volcanic activity as new crust is created.
Destructive(collisional) plate margin/boundary
It is called a subduction zone.
A collisional plate boundary along which one lithospheric plate overrides another and produces a deep-sea trench, a volcanic arc, and seismicity.
Geological hot spots are not typically collisional. Hot spots are areas where magma rises from deep within the Earth's mantle to the surface, creating volcanic activity. Collisional plate boundaries, on the other hand, occur when tectonic plates converge and collide, leading to mountain formation and earthquakes.
usually you find most of the zones of earthquakes and volcanoes at a plate boundary.
The Moho boundary separates the Earth's crust from the mantle. It marks the boundary between the Earth's rigid outer layer (crust) and the underlying, more ductile layer (mantle).
You can find it on a convergent boundary
"moho" is the plate boundary between earth's crust and the mantle.

ummm hello! its just the moho layer! the moho layer is the boundary between the mantle and the crust!there is absolutely no boundary between the moho layer and the mantle! you think i am wrong? then drill to the moho layer and find out!
