Types of Plate Boundaries

Types of Plate Boundary


The Earth’s crust is made up of large, very rigid plates, which are moving at
different speeds and sometimes colliding. Plate boundaries occur where two
plates meet. There are three different kinds of plate boundaries, which are defined
by how the plates were formed and how they are moving in relation to each other.

Convergent boundaries- occur


where two plates move toward
each other. Plates collide
causing one plate to slide under
the other plate and at other times
pushing both plates upward. This
usually takes place where an
oceanic plate and a continental
plate, two oceanic plates, or two
continental plates come
together. Volcanoes, trenches
and mountain ranges can be
formed.

Divergent boundaries- occur along


spreading centers were plates are
moving apart and new crust is being
created by magma pushing up from
the mantle. This led to the formation
of rift valleys, volcanoes, seafloors
and ridges.

Types of Plate Boundaries

Transform plate boundary occurs when two plates sliding past each other in
opposite directions. This movement is the cause of many earthquakes, such as
those along the San Andreas Fault in California.

Synthesis
Here are the module’s key ideas:
● There are three (3) main types of plate boundaries, namely: Convergent,
divergent and transform
● There are several types of volcanic eruptions: hydrothermal, phreatic,
phreatomagmatic, strombolian, vulcanian and Plinian eruption.
