2. convergent boundaries- a direct collision of one plate with another
a. one oceanic plate and one continental plate form volcanoes; such as mount saint helens
b. two continental plates push up onto each other and make a folded mountain; such as mount everest
c. two oceanic plates form an island arc; such as japan island
3. transform boundaries two plates slide past each other creating a fault
a. not many examples of this, but san andreas fault in california is one
