Transform Boundary • New crust forms at rift valleys, where two plates diverge, or pull away from each other. • This type of boundary is “constructive”, since it builds new materials onto the edges of the plates. • Example: African and Indo-Australian plates = The Great African Rift Valley. Divergent Boundary Continental/ Continental • New ocean crust forms at rift valleys, where two plates diverge, and builds and forms huge underwater mountains, called mid-ocean ridges. • For the last 250 million years, the Atlantic ocean has been growing wider as new crust is added to Sea-floor spreading. • Example: Eurasian and North American Plates= the Mid-Atlantic Ocean Ridge and Iceland. Divergent Boundary Oceanic/ Oceanic • When two plates carrying continents run into each other, the collision deforms the leading edge of both plates, creating folded mountains. • When two continents meet head on, neither is subducted because the continental rocks are relatively the same density. • Example: Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates = Himalayan Mountains Convergent Boundary continental/ continental • When two plates collide, destruction of the more dense plate will create a subduction zone, a trench and a volcanic mountain. • The more dense oceanic plate will bend and slide below the continental plate. • Example: Nazca and South American Plate the Andes Mountains Convergent Boundary oceanic/ continental • When two oceanic plates collide, destruction of the older plate will create a subduction zone. • Trenches on the ocean floor are the site where magma rises up to form volcano islands. • Example: Philippine and Pacific Plate= the island arc of Japan Convergent Boundary oceanic/ oceanic 135 Plate Boundaries 1/7/15 Starter/Practice: Notes How do you think the continents formed?
