The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries ... At ocean-ocean convergences, one plate usually dives beneath the other, forming deep trenches like the Mariana Trench ...

New crust is continually being pushed away from divergent boundaries ... a convergent boundary. Deep trenches appear at these boundaries, caused by the oceanic plate bending downward into the ...

Oceanic transform faults have historically been thought of as simple, predictable features. They represent the least well-studied of the three major plate boundaries, which include divergent ...

This movement results in deep ocean trenches, volcanic eruptions, and earthquake epicenters along the boundaries where the plates meet, called fault lines. The Ring of Fire is home to the deepest ...

These plates can be oceanic, meaning they're found mainly ... This is called a constructive or divergent plate boundary. These are usually found under oceans. As the plate moves apart, magma ...
