movement of convection currents causes two plates to move away from each other and magma rises in the gap forming new land.
destructive plate boundary
movements of convection currents pushes the continental and oceanic together. the oceanic crust is denser so it is pushed down into the mantle. this is called subduction
conservative plate boundary
two plates slide past each other but they get stuck and over time pressure builds up and they move past each other
collision plate boundary
two continental plates collide and they are both forced up and they form mountains
