Plate+Boundary+images+and+captions

After reading pages 50-60, post an image and a summary of what occurs at each type of plate boundary, in the space below. To avoid plagiarism, cite the source of your images and make sure your summaries (captions) that go with your posted images are not too similar to the words used to describe similar images, written by other people. DO NOT SAVE WORD DOCUMENTS! Upload images that show up, when the page is opened. There are actually FIVE types of plate boundaries, so you should have 5 images and 5 captions (summaries). Here is the list of the plate boundaries: Divergent, Oceanic-Continental Convergent, Oceanic-Oceanic Convergent, Continental-Continental Convergent, and Transform-fault boundary.  Rendell Pineda Divergent Boundary



Divergent boundaries are located along crests of oceanic ridges and can be thought of as constructive plate margins. Divergent boundaries also are called spreading centers.  Source: http://dl.coastline.edu/classes/telecourses/geology100/IntroLecture_files/image005.jpg

Continental convergence When an oceanic plate is subducted beneath continental lithosphere a volcanic arc forms. Continental collision occurs, then landmasses involved were seperated by an ocean basin.

Oceanic oceanic convergence Oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary has many features in common with oceanic-continental plate margins. Differences are mainly attributable to the nature of the crust capping the overriding plate.

Most transform faults join two segments of an oceanic ridge.

Sediments and oceanic crust contain a large amount of water which is carried to great depths. Process of partial melting happens where, the mantle is sufficiently hot.

Divergent boundaries- This is the place where the two plates move away from eachother forming a new seafloor. []



Oceanic-Convergent boundaries- This is the place where the two plates come together making a lithosphere. []



Transform Fault boundary- This is the place where the two plates swipe past eachother without doing anything to the lithosphere. []



Oceanis- Oceanic Convergent- This is when two slab, one going on top of the other causing volcanoes. []



Continental-Continental Convergent- This is when two continents meet, but neither of them are subducted. []

Divergent Boundary: is when two plates move apart from each other, which leads to rising material from the mantle to form a new surface on the seafloor.



[]

Oceanic-Continental Convergent: is when an oceanic plate pushes and goes under a continental plate. This results in the rising of the continental plate which forms a mountain range.

[] Oceanic-Oceanic Convergent: is when two oceanic plates come together and one is usually pushed underneath the other, which then forms a trench.



[]

Continental-Continental Convergent: is when two continental plates meet head on and neither goes below the other. This results in buckling and mountain ranges.



[] Transform Fault: is a fult that is found running along the edge of a plate.
