Convergent Boundary The boundary between two plates that moves toward each other.

rdnetigev yranodub

Divergent Boundary The boundary between two plates that move away from each other.

Fitr yaelvl

Rift Valley A deep valley that forms where two plates move apart.

mrorfnsat adnobruy

Transform Boundary A plate boundary where two plates slide past each other in opposite directions.

quetheaark

Earthquake A sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.

cvaonol

Volcano A mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being or have been erupted from the earth's crust.

snobuudcit

Subduction The process that occurs when one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plates.

dmi-encoa drige

Mid-ocean Ridge Long, narrow mountain range on the ocean floor; formed by magma at divergent plate boundaries.

lutaf

Fault The place where two plates meet.
