Tectonic

Question 1

what are the 2 types of crust?

Answer 1

contiental and oceanic

Question 2

tell me about contiental

Answer 2

made of Granite
its thick but less dense then oceanic

Question 3

tell me about oceanic crust

Answer 3

made of Basaltic Rocks
its thinner then contiental but more dense

Question 4

what are the 4 plate boundaries?

Answer 4

destructive plate
constructive plate
conservative plate
collision plate

Question 5

tell me about destructive plate

Answer 5

a convergent plate boundary where two plates (oceanic plate and the continental plate) meet, and the more dense oceanic plate is forced under the continental plate.
oceanic and oceanic
Subduction Zones, Volcanic Arcs, Earthquakes

Question 6

tell me about constructive plate

Answer 6

the tectonic plates are moving away from one another. oceanic and continental
Earthquakes

Question 7

tell me about conservative plate

Answer 7

plate boundaries where two plate are either slipping past each other in opposite directions or at different rates in the same direction. oceanic or continental.
Volcanic Activity, Earthquakes

Question 8

tell me about collision plate

Answer 8

A collision plate boundary occurs when two continental plates converge and collide. The collision leads to significant geological effects, primarily the formation of mountain ranges.
continental and continental
Mountain Building, Earthquakes
