    This document provides information about different types of plate boundaries: 1) Convergent boundaries occur where tectonic plates move towards each other and can result in subduction, trenches, and volcanoes. 2) Divergent boundaries occur where plates move apart and form mid-ocean ridges and rift valleys. 3) Transform boundaries occur where plates slide past each other horizontally along fault lines.

    Types of Plate Boundaries


    I. Direction: Using the blocks below, identify what type of Plate Boundary is present between the plates (Convergent Boundary,
    Divergent Boundary and Transform-Fault Boundary)

    1. AB = 6. CD = 11. EH = 16. FB = 21. FJ = 26. GK =


    2. AE = 7. CF = 12. EA = 17. FC = 22. GC = 27. HI =
    3. BC = 8. CG = 13. EI = 18. FE = 23. GD = 28. IJ =
    4. BE = 9. DG = 14. EF = 19. FG = 24. GF = 29. JK =
    5. BF = 10. DC = 15. EB = 20. FI = 25. GJ = 30. KJ =
    II. Direction: Use figure below to identify the type of plate boundary that exists between each of the two plates below.

    1. Antarctic Plate – Indo-Australian Plate 4. Indo-Australian Plate – Pacific Plate


    2. Nazca Plate – South American Plate 5. Nazca Plate – Pacific Plate
    3. South American Plate – African Plate

    III. Matching type: Match Column A with Column B


    A B
    ___1. Convergent boundary a. Mid-ocean ridges, rift valleys
    ___2. Divergent boundary b. Fault lines
    ___3. Transform boundary C. Subduction, trench, mountains, volcanoes
    ___4. Convergent boundary a. Tectonic plates move apart.
    ___5. Divergent boundary b. Tectonic plates come together.
    ___6. Transform boundary c. Tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other.
    ___7. Convergent boundary a. Himalayas and Appalachian mountain ranges
    ___8. Divergent boundary b. San Andreas Fault
    ___9. Transform boundary C. Atlantic mid-oceanic ridge, African rift valley
    ___10. Continental to oceanic a. Subduction, volcanoes, and trenches
    ___11. Oceanic to oceanic b. Subduction, deeper trenches, and volcanoes
    ___12. Continental to continental c. Mountain ranges like the Appalachian and Himalayas
