This is caused by the convection currents in the upper mantle. Mid-ocean ridges and rift valleys are formed at these boundaries. ]]> 2018-03-12 11:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240785938 Image of a Transform boundary. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240787214 2018-03-12 11:39:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240787214 What is a Transform boundary? kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240787705 Transform boundaries are found at places where two tectonic plates are neither moving and from each other nor colliding but rather where they are sliding against each other. The convection currents that cause transform boundaries are basically next to each other and they are rotating in opposite directions. Faults are very common at transform boundaries and they often cause earthquakes too. ]]> 2018-03-12 11:40:20 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240787705 Image of a Convergent boundary with subduction. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240789030 2018-03-12 11:43:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240789030 Image of a Convergent boundary without subduction. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240790240 2018-03-12 11:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240790240 What is a Convergent boundary? kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240791713 Convergent boundaries are found at places where two tectonic plates are moving toward each other. When this happens the less dense plate always dives under the less dense plate. but when they are both the same density they just slam into each other. When they slam into each other mountain ranges form. When one plate dives under the other trenches form and volcanoes can form on the other plate. ]]> 2018-03-12 11:49:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240791713 Divergent boundary video. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793279 2018-03-12 11:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793279 Convergent boundary video. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793486 2018-03-12 11:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793486 Transform boundary video. kyle_poppe https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793626 2018-03-12 11:54:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kyle_poppe/2jze5gfdub20/wish/240793626
