In this episode we discuss plate margins, which are areas where tectonic plates meet. It identifies three primary types: destructive, constructive, and conservative.

Destructive margins involve one plate sliding under another. Constructive margins feature plates moving apart, allowing magma to rise.

Conservative margins occur where plates slide past each other.

The movement along these margins, particularly at destructive and conservative boundaries, can lead to earthquakes due to built-up pressure and friction.
