  1. 63. What features occur when plates converge / subduct? Do Now ESRT page 5. Write down 3 convergent plate boundaries.

  2. . Find this plate boundary in ESRT p.5 Draw it.

  4. The following diagram shows the interaction between 3 tectonic plates. If you were to walk in a straight line from points A to B, name the three types of plate boundaries you will encounter, and draw a cross section of each.

  5. Use your knowledge of Earth Science and your ESRT to answer the following questions according to the Juan de Fuca plate diagram . • Name the tectonic plates located under points A, C, and E • What process causes tectonic plates to shift and move? • What plate boundaries are located at points B and D? What crustal features are forming here? • Draw detailed diagrams of the plate boundaries mentioned above. (Be sure to include both tectonic plates, arrows showing direction of movement
