This is known as a divergent boundary.
It creates a divergent boundary.
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.
No, when two continental plates diverge, a divergent boundary forms, not a transform boundary. At a divergent boundary, the plates move away from each other, leading to the formation of rift valleys or mid-ocean ridges. Transform boundaries occur where two plates slide past each other horizontally.
A divergent boundary is an area where two neighboring tectonic plates move away from one another. It can also be called a divergent plate boundary, constructive boundary or extensional boundary.

A divergent plate boundary.
A divergent plate boundary is one where the two plates on either side of the boundary are moving apart; 'di-' meaning away. Convergent plates are moving together.
