multiple-choice question what type of boundaries surround the philippine plate? divergent hot spot convergent transform rewatch tectonic plates eurasian plate north american plate eurasian plate juan de fuca plate philippine plate san andreas fault pacific plate african plate fiji plate south american plate indian - australian plate nazca plate antarctic plate scotia plate sandwich plate transform plate boundary (transform fault) divergent plate boundary (usually broken by transform faults along mid - ocean ridges) convergent plate boundary (subduction zone) complex or uncertain plate boundary mams hot spot overiding plate subducting plate
The Philippine Plate is surrounded by convergent boundaries. Convergent boundaries are where two tectonic plates move towards each other. In the case of the Philippine Plate, it is being subducted (one plate moving under another) at its boundaries, which is characteristic of convergent plate boundaries. Divergent boundaries are where plates move apart, transform boundaries are where plates slide past each other, and hot - spots are areas of volcanic activity not related to plate boundaries.
