Constructive boundaries occur when two plates move apart which causes new oceanic crust to be formed and mid-ocean ridges are created by the build-up of molten rock on the seafloor due to the mantle building up. This new crust pushes the old crust aside and forcing the plates apart at a very slow rate. Basaltic lava rises which means new crust is being added continuously. Rift valleys are formed at constructive boundaries‚ where convection current causes the crust to be pulled apart causing fractures

Plate tectonics Intro: The word tectonic represents the meaning of plates and boundaries. As an example of activity is an earthquake‚ which is caused by two plates like the Eurasian and pacific plate pushing towards each other‚ pushing the land upwards causing a mountain as well as an earthquake. The plates are pieces of land that make up the outer crust‚ these could move together‚ move apart or move alongside each other resulting in mountains‚ volcanoes and earthquakes‚ this happens deep

them is that there are two sides to the problem‚ no more‚ no less. This is precisely what is tearing our country apart – partisanship in the two-party system. If our first president George Washington were here today he would be highly disappointed in how our system of government is run by two parties. In his own words‚ " They serve to organize faction‚ to give it an artificial and extraordinary force; to put‚ in the place of the delegated will of the nation the will of a party‚ often small but artful

Plate boundaries Plate Boundaries is a theory of the global movement over a period of time. There are three main types of plate boundaries they are‚ transform boundaries‚ convergent boundaries‚ and divergent boundaries. Transform boundaries are where two plates are sliding past each other. These areas are also known as faults. Most transform boundaries are found on the ocean floor‚ a few however are found on land. Since these boundaries do not crunch together they to not tear or break

INTRODUCTION Plate tectonics The large scale motions of the earth’s lithosphere are describe by a scientific theory called plate tectonics which explains that Earth’s outer layer is made up of plates‚ which have moved throughout Earth’s history. The theory was developed during first decade of 20th century (by a famous advocate Alfred Wegener) on the older concept of continental drift and was accepted by many geoscientific communities. There are currently seven major and many minor plates are present
