A rift valley can form where two continental plates when they are what?
divide
Does a rift valley form when two continental plates diverge?
yes it does
When two continental plates converge a rift valley form?
No. Continental convergent plate boundaries form fold mountain ranges. A rift valley will form at a divergent plate boundary.

What is a rift valley?
A rift valley is a linear lowland between highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic fault or rift zone. It often forms where tectonic plates are moving apart, leading to the stretching and thinning of the Earth's crust, resulting in a depressed landscape. Rift valleys can be found on land or beneath the ocean.
When continental plates pull apart at a divergent boundary on land this land form is created?
It forms a rift valley.
True or false When two continental plates converge Rift Valley forms?
False. A rift valley forms when continental plates diverge or pull apart. When two continental plates collide the result is a mountain range.
How did the African Rift valley form?
the great rift valley formed when two plates shifted.
What happens when two continental plates move apart?
A rift valley form and around that rift valley a volcano could form also.
How did a rift valley form?
