13. Divergent Plate Boundaries: Two plates pull apart. Under ocean ridges are formed

14. Convergent Plate Boundaries: Two plates push against each other. Trenches and volcanic mountain ranges are formed.

15. Transform Plate Boundaries: Two plates rub against each other as they move in opposite directions. This is the cause of most earthquakes in California a.k.a. Strike-Slip

16. Haiti: What do you think the red and orange dots mean?

17. What type of plate boundary do you think caused the Haitian Earthquake?
