Activity 1.4 - Ansing, Jeannel

1. The document is a student worksheet about tectonic plate interactions from a 10th grade Earth Science class. 2. It includes objectives, materials, and procedures to analyze different types of plate boundaries and make inferences about what occurs when plates converge, diverge, or move past each other. 3. The student chose examples of convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries and recorded observations about possible landforms formed by each in a data table.

Activity no. 1.4


Dynamic Earth
Objectives:
 Relate how volcanoes, mountains, and earthquakes result from plate interactions

Material:
 Tectonic plates diagram

Procedure:
1. Refer to the major tectonic plates below. The following symbols are used for each type of plate
boundary.

Convergent Divergent Transform

2. Choose any convergent boundary from the diagram and infer what will happen if the plates will
converge. Write your answer in the data table of your answer sheet.
3. Choose any divergent boundary and infer what will happen if the plates will move away from
each other. Write your answer in the data table of your answer sheet.
4. Choose any transform boundary and infer what will happen if the plates will slide past each
other. Write your answer in the data table of your answer sheet.

Conclusion:
In Conclusion, the tectonic plates differ from each other. The movement occurs from the plate depends
on the kind of plate boundary they have resulting to many possible land forms. The earthquakes, volcanic
eruptions and the formation of many landforms occurs from the result of many plate interactions here in earth.
The different kinds of plate boundaries in each country signify the landforms that can be found or situated in
each country and how they are formed.
