Dutch ovens are cylindrical, heavy gauge cooking pots with tight fitting lids that can be used either on a range top or in the oven. The heavy metal or ceramic construction provides constant, even, and multi-directional radiant heat to the food being cooked inside.lmost any cooking task can be performed in a Dutch oven. Soups/Stews â Dutch ovens are perfect for soups and stews because of their size, shape, and thick construction. The heavy metal or ceramic conducts heat well and can keep food warm for long periods of time.
Some features, such as earthquakes and volca-noes, are more common at tectonic plate boundaries than at other places on Earth. Other features, such as mid-ocean ridges and ocean trenches, form only at plate boundaries.
There are 3 types of plate boundaries-convergent, divergent, and transform. Convergent boundaries occur when 2 plates collide with each other and push each other. Neither plate will give way, so the crust on the plates rise up and form mountains and mountain ranges. Divergent boundaries form rift valleys, volcanoes, and deep-ocean trenches, and transform boundaries cause earthquakes. Plates slide, collide and shift.
