Divergent plates are plates that are moving away from each other.
It is a rift zone or a divergent boundary. plus. no offense to that person that uploaded the previous answer.
The 2004 Indonesian tsunami was caused by a megathrust earthquake along a subduction zone, which involves a convergent plate movement. The Indian Plate subducted beneath the Burma Plate, generating a massive underwater earthquake that resulted in the tsunami.
A rift valley is evidence of a divergent plate boundary, where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. This movement creates a gap in the Earth's crust, resulting in the formation of a rift valley.

Mid-ocean ridges are commonly created at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates move away from each other. This movement allows magma to rise from the mantle, solidify, and form new crust, leading to the formation of underwater mountain ranges known as mid-ocean ridges.
Divergent plate movement.

Divergent. Convergent. Transform.
Tectonic movement.
Convergent,Divergent, and Transform Boundaries
It is called a divergent plate boundary.
the three types of plate boundaries are : -convergent plate boundaries -divergent plate boundaries -transformed plate boundaries
There are three basic plate movement types, first there is convergent movement. Secondly, there is divergent movement and lastly there is transform movements.
Hekla volcano is located along a divergent plate boundary in Iceland, where the North American and Eurasian plates are moving apart. This movement creates rift zones where volcanic activity is common, including Hekla.
There are actually 4 types.....1.convergent-two plates pushing toward each other2.divergent-Two plates moving apart3.subduction-one plate is pulled under the edge of another4.Transform\lateral-Two plates slide past each other
That is easy there are acctuaslly 4 they are convergent,covergent subduction, divergent, and transform.
