Geography

Pepsi [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer with Explanation:

The "North American Plate" is said to be one of the largest plates that includes continents such as <em>Greenland </em>and <em>Iceland (part of it).</em> It borders the "Eurasian Plate" in the middle of the <em>Atlantic Ocean</em>. In this area, plates move away from each other due to <u>divergent boundary</u>. Such movements of these plates is caused by "convection currents." Such current allows the transfer of heat <em>(mantle material)</em> from the bottom to the surface, thereby pushing the "lithosphere." It then results to a<em> mid-ocean ridge. </em>
