A transform boundary is where two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, causing earthquakes. A convergent boundary is where two plates move towards each other, leading to one plate being forced beneath the other in a process called subduction, creating features like mountain ranges and trenches.
Mt. Fuji is located in Japan. It is near a continental convergent boundary, a continental transform boundary, and an oceanic transform boundary.
The three types of plate boundaries are divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries. At divergent boundaries, plates move away from each other, creating new crust. Convergent boundaries involve plates colliding, leading to the formation of mountain ranges or subduction zones. Transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other horizontally.
Convergent Boundary.
The North American plate is mainly a convergent plate boundary, where it collides with other plates like the Pacific Plate and the Caribbean Plate. However, there are also small areas along its boundaries that exhibit transform fault boundaries, such as the San Andreas Fault in California.
A transform plate boundary occurs when two plates slide past one another horizontally. This movement can cause earthquakes along the boundary as the plates grind against each other. The San Andreas Fault in California is a well-known example of a transform plate boundary.
A transform plate boundary.
no
At a convergent boundary two plates move toward each other. At a transform boundary plates slide past each other.
No. it was along a convergent boundary.
Mt. Fuji is located in Japan. It is near a continental convergent boundary, a continental transform boundary, and an oceanic transform boundary.
The Andes are a result of the convergent boundary between the Nazca and South American Plate.
Convergent plate boundary, divergent plate boundary and strike-slip (transform) plate boundary.
An area where two tectonic plates collide is called a boundary. There are three kinds of boundaries. They are convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
divergent transform, or convergent
No. The Valdivia earthquake was on a convergent boundary.
