A boundary where the plates are moving apart is called a divergent boundary. It is also called a constructive boundary because new crust is made there.

The boundary between two plates moving together is called a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, one plate is usually subducted beneath the other, leading to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity.
divergent plate
Convergent: plates move into one another.Divergent: plates move apart.Transform: plates move sideways in relation to each other.
It is called a divergent plate boundary.
Convergent means where plates are moving together. Divergent means where plates are moving apart.
The boarder between two plates is called a boundary.
divergent boundary
This is called a convergent boundary. A divergent boundary is when plate move away from each other, and a transform boundary is when plates slide past each other.
This is called a divergent plate boundary.
