Activity 7: Summary of Geologic Processes in Plate Boundaries

Each picture depicts a kind of plate boundary. The words listed on the choices are examples of geologic processes that occur near plate boundaries. Categorize the pictures and geologic processes based on the type of plate boundary where they are associated.Click each item then choose the type of plate boundary (1 to 6) where they are associated. 1. Oceanic-Continental crust CONVERGENT Plate Boundary Subduction of oceanic crust beneath the continental crust Trench formation between oceanic and continental crust Earthquake (1) Volcanic arc formation 2. Oceanic-Oceanic crust CONVERGENT Plate Boundary Subduction of oceanic crust beneath the other oceanic crust Trench formation between the two oceanic crust Earthquake (2) Volcanic island arc formation Tsunami 3. Continental-Continental crust CONVERGENT Plate Boundary Mountain ranges formation Earthquake (3) 4. Continental-Continental crust DIVERGENT Plate Boundary Rift valley Earthquake (4) 5. Oceanic-Oceanic crust DIVERGENT Plate Boundary Formation of new oceanic crust Formation of mid-oceanic ridge Earthquake (5) 6. TRANSFORM Fault Boundary Plate Boundary Earthquake (6) What would you like me to review in class?
