No. Divergent boundaries can occur on continents. The most notable example of this is the East African Rift.
What else can I help you with?
The youngest rocks on the ocean floor are located where?
The youngest rocks on the ocean floor are located at mid-ocean ridges. These ridges are always found at divergent boundaries.
Ocean ridges are formed by what boundaries?
Divergent boundaries form ocean ridges.
What naturally forms at divergent boundaries?
Mid-ocean ridges
Where do most divergent plate boundaries occur?
Ocean ridges
Do divergent boundaries cause island arcing?
No. Divergent boundaries cause mid ocean ridges (MORs) to form.
In which location would an ocean ridge?
The mid-ocean ridge is almost in all of the oceans
At which type of plate boundary are mid-ocean ridges found?
Mid-ocean ridges are typically found at divergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates are moving away from each other. These ridges are formed by the upwelling of magma from the mantle, creating new oceanic crust as the plates separate.
Which type of boundary do mid-ocean ridges occur?
divergent
Is a mid-ocean ridge convergent?
No. Mid-ocean ridges mark divergent boundaries.
Where are rift valley and ocean ridges are typically seen?
Rift valleys are typically seen on divergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates are moving apart. Ocean ridges are also commonly found at divergent plate boundaries, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity along the mid-ocean ridges.
Are divergent plate boundaries associated with folded mountains and deep sea trenches?
No. Sea floor trenches are found at convergent boundaries. divergen boundaries form mid-ocean ridges.
What do under ocean divergent boundaries create?
it makes mid-oceanic ridges
