Science 10 Quarter 1
Activity on the Types of Plate Boundaries

Directions:
Answer the questions below. You may read your Q1 module 2 as reference.

This figure shows the types of Plate Boundaries:

A. Based on the figure, give a definition of:

1. Convergent boundary - __________________

_____________________________________

2. Divergent boundary - ___________________

_____________________________________

3. Transform boundary - ___________________

_____________________________________

B. Answer these questions based on the figure below. It shows the different plate boundaries
and relative motion to each other as represented by arrows.
 1. Pacific plate and Nazca plate formed _______________ (convergent, divergent) boundary.
2. _______________ (Convergent, Transform, Divergent) is the type of boundary between
Australian plate and African plate.
3. The type of boundary between Pacific plate and Antarctic plate is _______________
(convergent, divergent, transform) boundary
4. Philippine plate moves toward _______________ (Australian plate, Eurasian plate, Antartic
plate) at the convergent boundary.
5. What type of plate boundary occurs between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate?
(Divergent, convergent, transform)

C.

1. At the convergent boundary between oceanic plate and continental plate, ___________ (tension,
subduction, expansion) zone is formed.

2. ___________ (Rift valley, Mid- Ocean ridge, Lake) is formed by divergence of two oceanic plates.

3. The relative motion of the plates at the divergent boundary is moving ___________ (past,toward,
away) each other.

4. The relative motion of the plates at the convergent boundary is moving ___________ (past,
toward, away) each other.

5. The relative motion of the plates at the transform fault boundary is ________ (toward, away,
sliding past) each other.
