The plates slide across from each other. By that I mean away from each other and they can make earthquakes and mountains!
divergant boundries. new rock is formed and pushes the older seafloor outward towards the continental crust.
is a boundary
mountains
Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
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.
Tensional stress.
A divergant plate boundary.
Mountain chains at ocean ridges
Convergent boundry
the boundry formed by the collision of 2 lithosphere plates
The Nubian/African boundry and the Somalian boundry
