The movement of tectonic plates in two locations is described below:
Location A: Tectonic plates sliding in opposite directions crash together
Location B: Tectonic plates move apart
Which statement is most likely correct?
Mountains may form in both locations.
There is no chance of earthquakes in the two locations.
New land may form in Location B but not in Location A.
Volcanic eruptions may occur in Location A but not in Location B.
New land may form in Location B but not in Location A.
When tectonic plates slide past each other in opposite directions, earthquakes occur along the fault, so that is no new land. But in Location B, when plates move apart, magma comes up through the cracks and can form ridges or mid-ocean ridges.
