What are diverging bounderies?

a divergent boundary is where two of earth plates are moving


Sea-floor spreading occurs in places where two plates are doing what?

Sea-floor spreading occurs in places where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. Magma rises to the surface, creating new crust as the plates separate. This process is a key mechanism driving the movement of Earth's lithosphere.


Distinguish between converging and diverging tectonic plates in a table form?

The Earth's crust is broken up into several lithospheric or tectonic plates. These plates are constantly moving atop the Earth's mantle (semi-solid layer of molten rocks). Based upon their motion, tectonic plates are referred to as converging or diverging. Converging tectonic plates move towards each other and form convergent boundary. Diverging tectonic plates move away from each other and form divergent boundary.


What is the movement of diverging?

A plate boundary where two plates move away from each other.A plate boundary where two plates move away from each other.


What type of plate movement occurs when two oceanic plates pull apart?

Why do valcanoes occer in certain places?

How are transform boundaries different from converging and diverging boundaries?

What tectonic plates were involved in the eyjafjallajokull eruption?

The Eyjafjallajökull eruption in 2010 involved the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates in Iceland. The volcano is located along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where these two plates are diverging.


Is subduction characteristic of diverging plate boundaries?

No, subduction is not characteristic of diverging plate boundaries. Subduction occurs at converging plate boundaries where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate. Diverging plate boundaries are where tectonic plates move away from each other, such as at mid-ocean ridges.


What is formed when two plates spread on Earth's crust?

Plates


What Is the mechanism responsible for producing the new seafloor between two diverging plates?

The mechanism responsible for producing new seafloor between two diverging plates is seafloor spreading. Magma rises from the mantle to fill the gap created by the plates moving apart, solidifies upon contact with seawater, and forms new oceanic crust. This process results in the continuous growth of the ocean floor.


Where two of the earth plates split apart?

At the boundry of two tectonic plates, you get volcanoes, earthquake epicentres and ( if its under the ocean) tsunamis.
