Plate Tectonics The theory of plate tectonics is based on the theory that plate tectonics explain the formation, movement, and subduction of Earth’s plates.

This a project about plates boundrys.

Divergent plates.  When the divergent boundary happens it creates a convection current and it creates a mid-ocean ridge.  An example of this is in the mid-atlantic trench.  Fun fact about divergent plates create valleys.  "Divergent Plate Boundaries." Divergent Plate Boundaries. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec

Divergent plate map.

Convergent.  A convergent boundary happens when a plate and another plate collide and form a mountain.  This happens in Himalaya's.  "Convergent Plate Boundaries." Convergent Plate Boundaries. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec  Fun fact about convergent boundary cause mountains to form.

Convergent plate map.

Transform boundary.   A transform boundary happens when two plates slide next to each other.  This happens in the San andreas fault.  a fun fact about transform boundary is  That they do not create anything or  Or destroy anything.

Transform map

Hot spot.  A hot spot happens hot spot are when magma rocks melt to make magma.  This happens in Hawaii. 

Fun fact about hot spot is they created Hawaii.
