1. Divergent
The plates that move apart are called diverging plates. As the diverging plates move apart, a crack is created that causes magma to rush up and form a new bedrock. Most are found on the seabed.

2. Convergent
The plates that move towards each other, ie the plates that eventually collide

3. Subduction zone
It is a boundary area in the lithosphere. Two plates in the lithosphere collide with each other, as one plate is pressed down under the other and sinks into the mantle.

4. Spreading zone
Is a plate tectonic boundary where two tectonic plates move apart. The material contained in the mantle rises towards the lithosphere and this occurs at the same time as the crust cracks. When the crust cracks, magmatic mantle material rushes out between the plates.
