Divergent plate boundary.
What else can I help you with?
Is a new oceanic crust formed at a transform fault boundary?
No. New oceanic crust is formed at a divergent boundary. A convergent boundary neither creates nor destroys crust.
Where new crust is formed?
New crust is formed at a divergent boundary
How can crust disappear at the edge of the boundary?
New crust is being added to the other edge of the boundary
Is new crust created at a convergent boundary?
No, new crust is not created at a convergent boundary. Instead, at convergent boundaries, two tectonic plates come together and one plate is usually forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This process can lead to the destruction of crust rather than the creation of new crust.
What boundary is it called when new crust is being formed?
Divergent Boundary, (Constructive Boundary).
What type of boundary is new ocean crust crust formed?
This would be called a Spreading center, or a divergent plate boundary.
How the thin outer crust is floating on the thick liquid mantle causing the crust to move and form a divergent plate boundary?
how the thin outer crust is floating on the thick liquid mantle, causing the crust to move and form a divergent plate boundary
How can crust disappear at the edge of a boundary?
Crust can disappear at the edge of a boundary through subduction, where one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another. This process causes the crust to be pulled into the mantle and reabsorbed, leading to the disappearance of crust at the boundary.
What do you call a plate boundary in which no new crust is made or destroyed?
recessive plate boundary
This type of boundary forms when the crust of one plate is being pushed down and turned into molten rock?
The type of boundary that forms when the crust of one plate is pushed down under another plate and turned into molten rock is referred to as a convergent boundary. Convergent boundaries form when oceanic crust slides beneath continental crust.
What will the result be when a divergent boundary?
A divergent boundary results in the separation of tectonic plates, leading to the creation of new crust as magma rises up and solidifies at the boundary. This process can form features such as mid-ocean ridges or rift valleys on land.
Which boundary forms new crust?
Crust is formed at the edge of a tectonic plate by, when a volcano erupts, the lava or magma (same thing) hits the edge of a tectonic plate and cools and dries on the edge of that tectonic plate.
