if you were to walk from florida to morocco (see black line on map above), which type of plate boundary would you walk across and which features would you see at this plate boundary? hint: it might be helpful to look at the plate map in the lecture pdf.
i would see a divergent plate boundary between the north american plate and the african plate. i would see a mid - ocean ridge at the bottom of the atlantic ocean.
i would see a convergent plate boundary and the formation of tall mountains.
i would see a transform plate boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate and see evidence of earthquakes.
i would see a convergent plate boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate and the formation of deep subduction zones.

Explanation:

The walk from Florida to Morocco crosses the Atlantic Ocean. The North - American plate and the African plate have a divergent boundary here. At a divergent plate boundary in an oceanic setting, a mid - ocean ridge is formed as new crust is created.

Answer:

I would see a divergent plate boundary between the North American plate and the African plate. I would see a mid - ocean ridge at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
