1 Convergent & Transform Boundaries

2 Review convergent, divergent, transform oceanic continental
What are the three types of boundaries? _____________________________________ A spreading ridge occurs where two ____________ plates diverge, while a rift valley occurs where two ____________ plates diverge. convergent, divergent, transform oceanic continental

3 Review ridge push Young closer old thin closer thick farther
When new rock pushes old rock, it is called ________________. Fill in the blanks with old, young, closer, farther, thick, and thin. _______ rocks are found _________ to a diverging boundary while _______ rocks are found farther from a diverging boundary. A_________ sediment layer forms ________ to a diverging boundary and a _________ sediment layer forms _________ from a diverging boundary. Young closer old thin closer thick farther

4 A converging boundary occurs where two tectonic plates move __________ each other and ___________. What happens depends on whether the plates involved are continental or oceanic. towards collide
