What oceanic landform is most likely to be found where two plates are moving away from each other?
Rift Zone
What landforms were created when the plates slammed into each other during the continental drift?
It can generate raised landmasses such as mountains because of the plates moving over and under each other.
Is it true or false that volcanoes happen when moving plates strain against each other and one plate suddenly gives away?
False. When plates give way in this manner the result is an earthquake. Volcanoes are produced by different but related processes.
How do earthquakes occur at transform fault?
Earthquakes occur from tectonic plate movement, transform, divergent and convergent.KIDS ANSWER:Earthquakes happen by the plates of the world moving,these plates can move in three different ways. Transform which is when the simply slide past each other. There is also divergent and convergent divergent is when the plates don't like each other so they move away from each other, and convergent which is were the plates are mad at each other so they have a fight and go into each other.hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!from a year five school girl
What are three types of faults and how are they diffrent?
Transverse - Plates move side by side Convergent - Plates move towards each other, usually one gets subducted. Divergent - Plates move away from each other.
Can two plates moving away from each other form a volcano?
Yes, but no with each other. They can meet other plates.
Are the pacific plates and the antarctic plates moving towards each other or away from each other or past each other?
The Pacific Plate and Antarctic Plate are moving past each other. They are both part of the larger tectonic plate system and their movement contributes to the overall dynamics of plate tectonics.
What is the plates that are moving away from each other?
This is a divergent plate boundary.
What is the name of the fault that is moving away from each other?
The Plates are Divergent.
Are most volcanoes on land caused by the Earth's plates moving away from each other or moving toward each other?
all volcanoes are caused by the earths plates moving toward each other and that is called convergent boundaries.
How is a rift zone formed?
Tectonic Plates moving away from each other.
Plates that are moving away from each other?
This is called a divergent plate boundary.
What do we call the plate boundary where plates are moving away from each other?
divergent boundary
What is that call when two plates are moving from each other?
When two plates move away from each other it is called a divergent plate boundary because they are dividing.
What is the boundary between two plates that are moving called?
Is they are moving away from each other it is a divargent boundryif they are moving towards each other it is a convergent bounderyIf they are sliding pass each other its a transormation boundery
What boundary between two plates that are moving away from each other called?
divergent plate
What is it called when plates are moving toward each other?
This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
