Question

Alexa is preparing for a presentation by creating note cards identifying keywords that describe various features of each type of plate boundary. Which words apply to all three of the convergent boundaries?

Answer 1

There are several types of plate boundaries: convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, and transform boundaries. Convergent boundaries occur when two tectonic plates are colliding, while divergent boundaries occur when two tectonic plates are moving apart. Transform boundaries, on the other hand, occur when two tectonic plates pass each other.

Thus, the answer to the question is: earthquakes are common, plates move toward each other, and one plate sinks below other.
