Question 15(multiple choice worth 3 points) which of the following is not commonly associated with a plate boundary? fault hot spot mid-ocean ridge mountain trench

hot spot

Explanation:

There are several different types of plate boundaries, and each boundary type comes with some specific physical geographic feature. The divergent plate plate boundaries have mid-ocean ridges if they are on the ocean floor, or they rifts if they are on land. The transform plate boundaries have faults. The convergent plate boundaries have trenches if they are between oceanic and continental plates, or mountain ranges if they are between two continental plates.

The hot spots though are something that is commonly associated with plate boundaries. The reason for this is that the hot spots can appear anywhere, so they can be near a plate boundary, but they can also be in the interior of an oceanic plate, or in the interior of a continental plate. The hot spots occur because of much more intense activity in the astenosphere, resulting in mantle plumes which manages to break through the crust with ease and manifest themselves on the surface.
