What else can I help you with?
Is a new oceanic crust formed at a transform fault boundary?
No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.
What boundary is it called when new crust is being formed?
Divergent Boundary, (Constructive Boundary).
How can crust disappear at the edge of a boundary?
Crust can disappear at the edge of a boundary through subduction, where one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another. This process causes the crust to be pulled into the mantle and reabsorbed, leading to the disappearance of crust at the boundary.
What do you call a plate boundary in which no new crust is made or destroyed?
recessive plate boundary
Which of these does not occur at a convergent boundary?
A divergent boundary does not occur at a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, tectonic plates move towards each other and usually result in the formation of mountains, ocean trenches, or volcanic activity. In contrast, divergent boundaries occur when plates move away from each other and create new oceanic crust.
Is a new ocean crust formed at a divergent boundary?
because the molten rock cools in the water and forms a oceanic crust
Is a new oceanic crust formed at a transform fault boundary?
No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.
Where new crust is formed?
New crust is formed at a divergent boundary
How can crust disappear at the edge of the boundary?
New crust is being added to the other edge of the boundary
What boundary does new crust form at?
Divergent plate boundary.
Is new crust created at a convergent boundary?
No, new crust is not created at a convergent boundary. Instead, at convergent boundaries, two tectonic plates come together and one plate is usually forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This process can lead to the destruction of crust rather than the creation of new crust.
What boundary is it called when new crust is being formed?
Divergent Boundary, (Constructive Boundary).
This type of boundary forms when the crust of one plate is being pushed down and turned into molten rock?
The type of boundary that forms when the crust of one plate is pushed down under another plate and turned into molten rock is referred to as a convergent boundary. Convergent boundaries form when oceanic crust slides beneath continental crust.
What type of boundary is new ocean crust crust formed?
This would be called a Spreading center, or a divergent plate boundary.
How can crust disappear at the edge of a boundary?
Crust can disappear at the edge of a boundary through subduction, where one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another. This process causes the crust to be pulled into the mantle and reabsorbed, leading to the disappearance of crust at the boundary.
A mid-ocean ridge forms at what type of plate boundary?
A mid-ocean ridge forms at the divergent plate boundary. This boundary initially forms rifts that later on become rift valleys.
What do you call a plate boundary in which no new crust is made or destroyed?
recessive plate boundary
