Khan Academy: Plate Tectonics: Plates Moving Due to Convection in Mantle
A video lecture exploring how the plates in Earth's mantle move due to convection. [6:03]
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Plate Tectonics: Geological Features of Divergent Plate Boundaries
A video lecture exploring plate tectonics. Learn about the core layers and what causes the layers to spread apart causing a divergent plate boundary. Video also gives examples of divergent boundaries found around the globe. [11:57]
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Plate Tectonics: Convergent Plate Boundaries
Explore the geological features of convergent plate boundaries in this video. Learn that as the plates come together a volcano, a earthquake or more could occur. [6:03]
