Oceanic crust divergent plate boundary features:
- new oceanic crust
- widened ocean basins
- underwater volcanoes
- lateral faults
- submarine mountain ranges
- deep-sea vents
Continental crust divergent plate boundary features:
- normal faults
- uplifted country rock
- rift valleys
- some volcanic activity

∙ 9y agoMid-Ocean Ridges are the geological features that occur at divergent boundaries. Mid-Ocean Ridges are mountains that form on the ocean floor and with a total length over forty thousand miles.

Are divergent plate boundaries associated with folded mountains and deep sea trenches?
No. Sea floor trenches are found at convergent boundaries. divergen boundaries form mid-ocean ridges.
What three features can be found at divergent boundaries?
Rifts Mid-oceanic ridges Volcanic islands
Is volcanism found at convergent and divergent boundaries of tectonic plates?
Volcanism can be found at both convergent and divergent plate boundaries.
Is subduction common at divergent plate boundaries?
Subduction doesnt occur at divergent boundaries, but rather they are found at convergent boundaries.
What type of land features are found around divergent boundaries?
There are two places that divergent boundaries occur. Under the sea where magma pushes up to form lava ridges and at the divergence at the Red Sea near the Suez canal.
What is this geologic feature is likely to be found at all three boundaries?
Divergent
Features found at divergent boundaries include?
Ocean ridges
What features are found in divergent boundaries in the ocean?
A mountain range of volcanoes.

Subduction doesnt occur at divergent boundaries, but rather they are found at convergent boundaries.
Where can divergent divergent boundary be found?
Most divergent boundaries can be found on the ocean floor. divergent boundaries create Rift Valleys An example of this is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge discovered by Harry Hess.
Where are most divergent boundaries found?
On the seafloor. Yes, the mid oceanic ridges are all divergent boundaries.
What type of land features are found around divergent boundaries?
There are two places that divergent boundaries occur. Under the sea where magma pushes up to form lava ridges and at the divergence at the Red Sea near the Suez canal.
Where are shallow earthquakes found?
divergent plate boundaries
What are the different types of boundaries found along the edges of plates?
convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, transform boundaries and plate boundaries
