Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Convergent.
Key Points
- Convergent Boundaries
- When two tectonic plates move toward each other and collide, they form a convergent plate boundary.
- There are three types of convergent plate boundaries: oceanic-oceanic boundaries, oceanic-continental boundaries, and continental-continental boundaries. Each one is unique because of the density of the plates involved.
- Convergent plate boundaries are often the sites of earthquakes, volcanoes, and other significant geological activity.
Additional Information
- Divergent boundaries
- A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other.
- The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is an example of divergent plate boundaries.
- Transform
- Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other.
- Transform boundaries are found on the seafloor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges.
