What are some of the physical feature associated with a divergent boundary?

some physical features about divergent boundaries are rifts that may turn into rift valleys, and sometimes it may fill with magma


At a divergent boundary what feature forms when two oceanic plates are involved?

An oceanic trench is formed. Divergent boundaries pull away from each other, forming a cavern in the ocean floor. The Marianas Trench is a good example of a divergent boundary.

Divergent boundary tectonic plates?

In plate tectonics, a Divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. These areas can form on the end of continents but eventually form ocean basins. Divergent boundaries within continents initially produce rifts which produce rift valleys. Therefore, most active divergent plate boundaries are between oceanic platesand are often called mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill. Thus creating a shield volcano which would eventually build up to become a volcanic island.


What are the landforms at divergent ocean plate boundaries?

Occasionally, mid-ocean ridges are found at a divergent boundary. Another feature that is made is a rift valley. Also, earthquake activity at fracture zones alone mid-ocean ridges, and volcanic activity


Why are transform faults are harder to find than divergent and convergent boundaries?

Because they realy dont create any prominent geographical or geological feature/landform.
