- At the edge of a plate, earthquakes. volcanic eruptions and mountain ranges are present.

- This is due to the movement of plates towards eachother or moving away.

- There are two main types of boundaries: constructive boundary & destructive boundary

Constructive bounaries 

- This boundery occurs when two plates move apart from eachother.

- As the plates move apart, magma can escape through the gap and solidify into new igneous  rock .
