Convergent boundaries form when tectonic plates meet or collide (move towards each other).

# data[].attributes.body
Transform boundaries form when tectonic plates move past each other in opposite directions.

# data[].attributes.body
Divergent boundaries form when tectonic plates diverge (move away from each other).

# data[].attributes.body
-The lithosphere thins as the two plates move apart, which allows the athenosphere to rise towards the earth's surface
-This process forms new lithosphere at divergent boundaries
-Old lithosphere gets destroyed in subduction zones at convergent boundaries

# data[].attributes.body
-The process of plates sinking below each other is called subduction
-Denser oceanic plates sink below less dense plates

# data[].attributes.body
-The movement of transform boundaries is mostly horizontal
-These plates do not move smoothly
-They slowly scrape against each other and then shift suddenly
