What is a Divergent plate boundary and what happens?
A divergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move away from each-other.
What are the 2 types of divergent boundaries and what happens in each?
continetal and oceanic
When moving away from a divergent boundary in either direction what happens?
The rocks increase in age
What happens when you have divergent boundaries by submarine eruptions and intrusions of rhyolitic magma?
Divergent boundaries by submarine eruptions and intrusions of rhyolitic magma will form new crusts of the ocean. This commonly takes place in the hydrosphere.
Where are rift boundaries formed at and what happens at them?
A rift boundary is a divergent boundary, where two plates of the earth's crust are moving away from each other. Divergent boundaries occur at mid-oceanic ridges on the sea floor, but usually the term rift is used to describe divergent boundaries on the land. The best known one is in eastern Africa.
Where do young fish live?
oceanocean
What happens divergent boundaries?
divergent boundaries happen when 2 plates move apart or divide
What happens along divergent boundaries?
along divergent boundaries tectonic plates move apart & rifts are created

What happens to tris in divergent?
Peter spray-paints the word 'stiff' on it.

What happens to Tris's bed in Divergent?
Peter spray-paints the word 'stiff' on it.
When moving away from a divergent boundary in either direction what happens?

What happens to magma divergent boundaries?
At divergent boundaries, two plates move apart from each other and the space that this creates is filled with new crustal material sourced from molten magma that forms below.
What happens when you have divergent boundaries by submarine eruptions and intrusions of rhyolitic magma?
Divergent boundaries by submarine eruptions and intrusions of rhyolitic magma will form new crusts of the ocean. This commonly takes place in the hydrosphere.
What happens at the end of Divergent?
In the end of the "Divergent" book series, the main character, Tris Prior, sacrifices herself to save others and bring down the corrupt system of factions. Her actions lead to a new beginning for society, with the hope of a more just and equal world.
What happens on a divergent plate boundary?
the two plates are moving away from each other, and new crust is formed.
