Divergent - when two plates pull away from each other.

Convergent - Also known as subduction zones, where volcanoes and mountains are often found, crust is destroyed and recycled back into the Earth's interior as one plate goes under another.

Oceanic-Continental - An oceanic plate will push against a continental plate and is subducted under it.
