Plate Boundaries

1. A)What type of boundary is below?b)What is happening/forming at the boundary?d) Give an example of a famous feature formed by this type of boundary.

A)Transform Boundaryb)Plates sliding past each other, causing earthquakes (c)San Andreas Fault

A)Subduction Boundaryb)Oceanic plate descending beneath continental plate, generating volcanic arcs (c)Ring of Fire

A)Convergent Boundaryb)Continental plates colliding, forming mountain ranges (c)Andes Mountains)

A)Divergent Boundary (Oceanic-Oceanic)b)Oceanic plates pulling apart, magma rising up-- forming underwater mountains (c) Mid-Atlantic Ridge)

In this question, we are focusing on different types of plate boundaries and the geological features formed as a result. The correct answer describes a divergent boundary where oceanic plates move apart, creating underwater mountains like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The three incorrect answers cover convergent boundaries forming mountain ranges, transform boundaries causing earthquakes, and subduction boundaries leading to volcanic activity, each with an example feature associated with them.

2. A)What type of boundary is shown?b)What is happening/forming at the boundary?c) Give an example of a famous feature formed by this type of boundary.

A) Divergent Boundary (Continent-Continent)b) a rift valley is formed as the continental crust pulls apartvalley---> lake----> widens to become a shallow ocean basinc) An example would be the African Rift Valley

A) Convergent Boundary (Oceanic-Oceanic)b) A trench is forming as one crust subducts under the otherc) An example would be the Mariana Trench.

A) Subduction Boundaryb) An island arc is forming due to one plate subducting under anotherc) An example would be the Japanese Archipelago.

A) Transform Boundaryb) Earthquakes occur as two plates slide past each other in opposite directions.c) An example would be the San Andreas Fault.

This question focuses on different types of plate boundaries and the features formed at those boundaries. The correct answer includes the explanation of a divergent boundary, the formation of a rift valley, and an example of the African Rift Valley. The three incorrect answers provide variations of plate boundaries with incorrect descriptions and examples to trick the respondent.

3. What type of boundary is shown? What is happening/forming at the boundary? Give an example of a famous feature formed by this type of boundary.

A) Convergent Boundary (Ocean-Continent) b) Oceanic plate subducts beneath continental plate -- form volcanic arcs c) Andes Mountains

A) Divergent Boundary (Ocean-Ocean) b) Plates are moving away from each other and creating new oceanic crust -- form mid-ocean ridges c) Mid-Atlantic Ridge

A) Transform Boundary b) Plates are sliding past each other horizontally -- form faults c) San Andreas Fault

A) Convergent Boundary (Continent-Continent)b) Plates are colliding and "fold" up because they are the same density-- form mountainsc) Himilayan Mountains

The correct answer is a Convergent Boundary involving two continental plates. When these plates collide, they fold up and form mountain ranges like the Himalayas. The other options describe different types of plate boundaries with their own distinct features and formations.

5. What type of boundary is shown at a convergent boundary between oceanic plates? What forms at this boundary? Can you provide an example of a famous feature formed by this boundary?

Convergent Boundary (Continental-Continental Crust) -- The collision of two continental plates creating large mountain ranges. An example would be the Himalayas in Asia.

Transform Boundary (Oceanic Crust) -- Plates slide past each other horizontally. An example would be the San Andreas Fault in California.

A) Convergent Boundary (Oceanic-Oceanic Crust)b) One oceanic plate will subduct below the other-- called the subduction zone forming a TRENCH-- magma will be pushed up underwater to form volcanoes and eventually islands c) Mariana Trench & Aleutian Islands, Tonga Islands

Divergent Boundary (Oceanic Crust) -- Plates move apart, creating new oceanic crust. An example would be the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

These incorrect answers provide examples of other types of plate boundaries and their respective formations, highlighting the differences between them and the correct answer.
