PLATE BOUNDARIES, understanding them… Use the plate tectonic map to answer the following questions. Name ______________________________ Hour______ 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. What type of boundary would you find on the West coast of the United States (California)? a. Transform b. Divergent c. Convergent There is a divergent boundary on the East side of Africa (THE CONTINENT). What is forming here because of that? a. Rift valley b. Trench c. Mid Ocean Ridge What type of boundary is in the middle of the Atlantic ocean between The Americas and Europe/Africa plates? a. Transform b. Divergent c. Convergent The boundary in #3 is in an ocean, what is forming here? a. Mid ocean ridge b. Trench c. Rift Valley Where is the ocean rock the oldest in the Atlantic? In the middle or near the continents? 6. Find India on your map. What type of collision is between India and Asia? a. Oceanic-oceanic b. Oceanic-Continental c. Continental-Continental 7. And what is being formed because of this boundary? a. Deserts b. Mountains c. Trench 8. Find where the Pacific plate meets the Eurasian Plate. This is an oceanic-oceanic collision. What is being formed because of this boundary? a. Mountains b. Trench c. Mid Ocean Ridge 9. What type of collision is happening where the Nazca plate (oceanic) meets the South American plate? a. Oceanic-oceanic b. Oceanic-Continental c. Continental-Continental 10. The Red Sea (between Africa and Saudi Arabia) is a divergent boundary. Is this sea going to become bigger or get smaller over time? 11. How many different plates are on your map? Count CAREFULLY!! 12. What type of boundary is between the Antarctic Plate and the Indo-Australian Plate? a. Convergent b. Divergent c. Transform 13. What feature is forming there? a. M.O.R. b. Trench c. Rift Valley
