divergent boundary: ocean - ocean (seafloor spreading)

Convection currents pull 2 ocean plates apart. Hot, less dense magma rises in the middle and cools, hardens, pushing the old seafloor out.

divergent boundary: continental - continental

Convection currents push 2 continental plates apart. Magma rises, the middle cools, hardens, and then sinks, forming a valley

c-c move 2 plates ocean or continetal in opposite direction or in the same direction at different speeds

convergent boundary: ocean- continental with subduction

Convection currents cause the ocean plates to drive under continental plates. Ocean plates melt and form magma, and magma rises, forming volcanoes

convergent boundary: ocean- ocean with subduction

Convection currents cause 2 ocean plates to move towards each other plates always older colder and more dense and divers under theother

convergent boundary: continental- continental no subduction

c-c causes 2 continental plates to move more toward each other. Both plates have the same density; therefore, no subdction occurs, and the 2 plates crumble up.
