    million years ago before breaking apart. The three different types of plate boundaries are convergent‚ divergent‚ and transform. These plate boundaries form due to the earth’s outer shell called the lithosphere having multiple plates moving around each other within the earth’s surface‚ allowing them to collide‚ separate‚ or slide past each other. A convergent plate boundary is also known as a destructive plate boundary since two plates are colliding with each other.

    Personal Boundaries People set up personal boundaries for many reasons. For some it is to keep out neighbors or animals‚ yet for others it is to keep something in‚ such as young children or a promiscuous wife with a wandering eye. In the poem by Robert Frost‚ both Robert and his neighbor have a wall made out of stone between their homes. Because the wall is made out of stone‚ it somehow breaks down and needs to be mended during the spring time. I believe that the wall is both physical and mental

    Kobe region of southern central Japan. This earthquake was one of the most over whelming earthquakes that occurred in Japan. What is the cause of the hazard? Japan is located in three tectonic plate boundaries; the Pacific‚ Eurasian and Philippine Sea plates. A three way destructive plate boundary occurred as a result of a plate movement along the border between the plates. The Kobe earthquake was caused by pressure building as the Philippine Sea plate is subducted underneath the Eurasian plate

    Fuca plate is getting subducted under it. This plate is made of oceanic crust‚ but it is also basaltic in some areas. It was named after the pilot and sailor‚ Juan de Fuca‚ an explorer from Europe in the 1600s. The Juan de Fuca plate has a divergent boundary in the Juan de Fuca ridge. New material is made by the Juan de Fuca ridge constantly‚ which is volcanically active. The Juan De Fuca plate used to be a part of a larger plate called the ‘Farallon’ plate. The Farallon plate broke apart 200 million

    true story of how mountains are formed. Simply put‚ they are the result of tectonic forces or volcanism.’’(Universe 2016) The Ox Mountains are a fold mountain range. Fold Mountains are formed when two tectonic plates collide at convergent plate boundaries. During this process the less dense crust to float over the denser plate. The material is then forced upwards

    “These plates move relative to each other‚ typically at rates of 2-4 inches per year. As the plates move‚ they interact along their boundaries” (Plate Tectonics). In other words‚ the formation of geological features occur at the plate boundaries which is where plates slide and interact. There are four types of plate boundaries: divergent boundaries‚ convergent boundaries‚ transform

Like most of the Cascade volcanoes‚ it has its own origins in the Cascadia subduction zone; a long convergent plate boundary that stretches from mid- Vancouver Island to Northern California. The first European to see the mountain in 1792‚ Captain George Vancouver‚ traded with the local natives in the area. When skiing became popular in the 1940s‚ Vancouver skiers began
