How are divergent boundary and rift valley related?
Rift Valleys and divergent boundaries occur where two tectonic plates are spreading apart. A good example of a Rift Valley is the one located in Africa between Somalia and Ethiopia.
Gap that forms as tectonic plates move apart?
i believe its the rift valley
When the continental plates pull apart at the divergent boundary on land what forms?
Rift valley
Why does magma aften form at the boundary between separating tectonic plates?
It is because volcanoes form by two tectonic plates which when both collide and they form volcanoes which a magma rock forms when it explodes.
What is the type of tectonic plate boundary that forms from a collision between two tectonic plates?
Volcanic mountains over hot spots in the mantle. Fault-block
Long crack that forms as two tectonic plates move apart?

What is a set of cracks that forms when two tectonic plates are pulling away from each other known as?
Divergent Plate Boundary. A Rift Valley forms between the two plates.
Im the gap that forms as tectonic plates move apart?
Oceanic trenches are the gaps which form when the tectonic plates move apart. They are the very deepest parts of the ocean.

Where does a riftvalley form at?
It forms at a plate boundary. It deepens as the plates pull apart.
What is sliding boundary?
forms when two {crustal} lithosphere plates move apart.

Rift valley

What forms when two lithospheric plates move apart?
When two lithosphere plates move apart a divergent boundary is formed. Hope this helps you. :D
