Question 2

What are the 4 types of plate boundaries

Answer 2

Destructive plate boundary
Constructive plate boundary
Collision plate boundary
Conservative plate boundary

Constructive plate boundary

Answer 3

Plates moving apart
Magma rises up to fill the space created and cools to form new land

because land is made (or constructed)

Question 4

Conservative plate boundary

Answer 4

Plates moving along side each other
because land is neither created or destroyed, it is conserved

Question 5
