Answer»

Convergent boundaries: where TWO plates are colliding. Subduction zones occur when one or both of the tectonic plates are composed of oceanic crust. The denser plate is subducted underneath the less dense plate.A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth’s mantle to the surface, solidifying to create new oceanic crust.Two plates sliding past each other FORMS a transform plate boundary. Natural or human-made structures that cross a transform boundary are offset—split into pieces and carried in opposite directions. Rocks that line the boundary are pulverized as the plates grind along, creating a linear FAULT valley or undersea canyon. Earthquakes are common along these faults. In contrast to convergent and divergent boundaries, crust is CRACKED and broken at transform margins, but is not created or destroyed.
