Does Terrane accretion generally occurs along a divergent boundary between a continental plate and an oceanic plate?
false
Is the volcano hekla along convergent or divergent plate boundaries?
Its along a divergent plate boundary.
What do Plates move apart along?
divergent boundary
What do pieces of oceanic crust do during sea floor spreading?
they move apart along a divergent plate boundary
What type of boundary is along ocean ridges?
Constructive or divergent. The ridge formed is of basaltic rock type (though this is a generalisation), and is a source of volcanic activity. Iceland was formed as a result of the sea-floor spreading.
What features is found along the divergent boundary?
Oceanic: Mid-ocean ridge Continental: Rift valley
What is created a divergent boundary?
a rift valley forms along the divergent boundary

What do pieces of oceanic crust do during sea floor spreading?
they move apart along a divergent plate boundary

No, it would form along a separating (divergent) tectonic plate boundary.
