A constructive margin is when a oceanic crust subducts a contiental crust. (when an oceanic plate is forced under a continental plate it is called subduction.)

VOLCANOS are found along the zones of subduction, and I have also heard that vey violent earthquakes can occur, however I am unsure whether this is true and I believe on volcanos occur.

Constructive Boundaries, are zones of interaction between plates, involving their movements away from each other, thereby creating an opportunity for new plate/crust to emerge/be formed.

Two oceanic plates move away from each other. the magma oozes out, and a ridge is formed gradually as lava collects.

at a constructive plate margin two plates move away from each other, magma rises and solidifies in the gap creating a new area of crust. e.g The island of Surtsey.
