Last week, we took a look at plate tectonics and the inside of the Earth. With the Earth moving under our feet, literally, we now investigate what goes on when these plates meet at boundaries.
What types of boundaries are there?
What happens at each type of boundary? Why?
What formations or evidence is associated with each type of boundary?
Thanks to Mrs. Tripp for the following picture which shows the range from the tallest mountain to the deepest trench, both created by plates converging.
