This tectonic boundary is known as a divergent boundary which will cause the formation of normals faults, leading to horst and graben structures. If the tensile stress is maintained and divergence continues, this will form a rift valley and ultimately due to the thinning of the crust, the creation of a new ocean and mid ocean spreading centre.

What is a deep crack in the earths crust called?
A fault.
What do you call the deep cracks in the earths crust along which the crust shifted?
Trenches if they are in zones of subduction. Falt lines are in areas of shifting plates (rubbing against or parallel)
What is diabase made out of?
diabase is made out of super codenced lava that was deep in the earths crust
Set of deep cracks that forms at divergent boundary?
a set of deep cracks that forms at divergent bounaries are called rift zones.

What is the size of the earths crust?
The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.
What is a crack in earths crust called?
Cracks in the Earth's crust are faults.
How does a strike slip fault lead to an earthquake?
An earthquake occurs deep in the earths crust caused by the displacement of two faults in the crust. Directly above the fault on the earths surface is called the epicenter. Which shows the aftermath of the strike slip fault that occured in the earths crust. So the strike slip fault is the effect of the displacement of the crust at that point deep in the earths crust which causes an earthquake to happen whenever there is a displacement of two faults.
What rock is found deep in the earths crust?

How and why does the earths crust vary from place to place?
The earths crust its 5-70km deep in the ocean and upto 100km deep at mountain ranges. At certain areas, the crust is unstable due to moving plate tectonics.
