What else can I help you with?
What forms a divergant boundary?
mountains
What is a type of boundary where two plates put apart?
A divergant plate boundary.
What is an example of divergant boundary?
Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
What is one hypothesis regarding the formation of a divergant boundary on a continent?
i dont know if its is true, but plate tectonics
Which plate is covering most of two continents?
convergant boundary and divergant boundary
What causes magma to form at a divergant plate?
At a divergent plate boundary the crust is thin. This reduces pressure on the upper mantle, lowering the melting point and allowing some rock to melt.
What is divergant boundary and what are the results of its movements?
A divergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move away from each other. This movement results in the formation of new crust as magma rises to fill the gap created by the separating plates. In oceanic settings, this process leads to the formation of mid-ocean ridges, while on land it can create rift valleys.
What type of stress is dominent at divergant plate boundaries?
Tensional stress.
Which features are associated with divergant boundaries?
Mountain chains at ocean ridges
What are 3 types of convergent pate boundaries?
Oceanic-continental plate boundary: where an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide, causing the oceanic plate to subduct beneath the continental plate. Oceanic-oceanic plate boundary: occurs when two oceanic plates collide, with one plate usually subducting beneath the other. Continental-continental plate boundary: where two continental plates collide, leading to the formation of mountain ranges through intense compression and uplifting of the crust.
What type of boundry forms when two plates pull apart?
A divergent boundary forms when two plates pull apart. As the plates move away from each other, magma rises to fill the gap, creating new crust. This process can result in the formation of mid-ocean ridges.
What happens at a divergant boundry?
The plates slide across from each other. By that I mean away from each other and they can make earthquakes and mountains!
