Problem: The crust of Planet Earth is constantly on the move! The dynamics under the crust cause the tectonic plates to move in different ways relative to each other. Each type of plate boundary produces distinctive characteristics. These can be volcanoes, earthquakes, rifts, or others.
Choose a tectonic plate to investigate from among the 15 listed. What is the name of the plate, and where in the world is it located? What plates does it border, and what kinds of tectonic boundaries are found there? Describe any volcanoes on, or caused by, the plate boundary interaction and what type of volcanoes they are.
