- Q2Most Volcanoes and Earthquakes occur:Along or right by a plate boundaryIn the middle of platesWhere mountains are createdOnly near mid ocean ridges30s
- Q3What is shown in the image and where does this occur?Sea floor spreading, occurs near the middle of the ocean along a divergent boundary.Subduction, occurs where two plates run into each other.Sea floor spreading, occurs near continental crust boundary.Subduction, occurs where one plate goes under another plate.30s
- Q4When looking at a divergent boundary, how old is the sea floor near the boundary, and far away from the boundary?Young near the boundary, old far away from the boundaryOld near the boundary, old far away from the boundary.Young near the boundary, young far away from the boundary.Old near the boundary, young far away from the boundary.30s
