what was the plate boundery plaease
ReplyDeletePlate boundary is the border between tectonic plate.Just like a country has a border to define it's area, a tectonic plate also has it's border. But plate boundary isn't permanent and still like a country border, it's constantly moving at a very slow pace. Due to this nature, earthquake & tsunami are often triggered nerby these location. I suggest you visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_tectonics for more info and photo of tectonic plate and it's boundary/border.
