Transform plates are also known as "Spreading Plates." Therefore, they spread apart
Yes. They think the earth's crust (where we are right now), is broken into huge plates (the continents) that fit together, but move very slowly. Thank you for asking.
"Collide divide slide" is a phrase used to describe the three main types of plate boundaries: convergent (collide), divergent (divide), and transform (slide). Convergent boundaries are where plates come together, divergent boundaries are where plates move apart, and transform boundaries are where plates slide past each other.
When plates move together, they can either collide and form mountains due to the compression forces, or one plate can be forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. Subduction zones are known for generating powerful earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Plates that come together are called convergent plates. At convergent boundaries, these tectonic plates move toward each other, often resulting in geological phenomena such as earthquakes, mountain formation, and volcanic activity. The interaction can involve one plate being forced beneath another in a process known as subduction.
A convergent boundary is where plates move together.

The plates come together
If plates move together they will make a montinous or a hill side area. If lava is flowing beneath it it can make a volcano and potentialy erupt.
convergent boundaries: plates move together divergent boundaries: plates move apart transform boundaries: plates move against each other
a mountain forms.
