What else can I help you with?
What is a tensional boundary?
Tensional boundary is the meeting zone of two tectonic plates at a normal fault; the plates move apart
At which type of boundary do plates move apart?
divergent transform, or convergent
What is it called when two plates are pulling apart in the middle of a continent?
divergent boundary
Do plates pulling apart cause volcanoes?
no but coliding plates create volcanoes
At which type(s) of plate boundary do earth earthquakes occur?
Earthquakes happen when a rock face along the fault line gives way or grinds against the other side. These are not boundaries such as convergent or divergen boundaries but are generally known as transform faults or just faults.
What is it called when two plates are pulling apart?
When two plates are pulling apart, it is known as divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary. This type of boundary results in the formation of new crust as magma rises to the surface and solidifies.
Which boundary do two plates pull apart?
Divergent plate boundary
What is the boundary between two plates that move apart?
divergent boundary
What is is the boundary when two plates that are moving apart?
It is called a divergent plate boundary.
What is a type of boundary where two plates put apart?
A divergant plate boundary.
What boundry do plates move apart at?
Divergent boundary
Plates move apart along what?
divergent boundary
What type of plate boundary would you find where the sea floor spreads?
A divergent plate boundary is where the sea floor spreads, such as along mid-ocean ridges. At these boundaries, tectonic plates move apart from each other, allowing magma to rise and create new crust.
What is a tensional boundary?
Tensional boundary is the meeting zone of two tectonic plates at a normal fault; the plates move apart
What is boundary tension?
Tensional boundary is the meeting zone of two tectonic plates at a normal fault; the plates move apart
Why does a volcano form at the boundary of two plates moving apart?
A volcano will form at the boundary of two plates moving apart. This is because the two plates moving apart create a crack allowing molten lava to flow up from the mantle.
What is is a spreading boundary?
a spreading boundary is when 2 plates spread apart from each other.
