When 2 continental plates diverge, a __ forms.
That is called a boundary or a transform-fault boundary. :D

Yes. An example is the San Andreas Fault, a transform boundary between the Pacific (oceanic) and the North American (continental) plates.
Normally a Divergent boundary because as the plates diverge, lava spews out, but they can also form at a Convergent boundary, or, although less likely, a transform boundary.
That is called a boundary or a transform-fault boundary. :D
Transform boundary
Converging (destructive) plate boundary: where two plates collide. Diverging (constructive) plate boundary: where two plates move away from each other. Transform plate boundary: where two plates move, or grind, past each other. Like the boundary in California.

At a convergent boundary two plates move toward each other. At a transform boundary plates slide past each other.
divergent boundaries
Convergent Boundary is a result of two tectonic plates colliding. Divergent boundary is the process where to tectonic plates move away from each other. if two tectonic plates move away from each other (diverge), each will collide with another plate (converge) on the opposite side of the divergent boundary, forming a convergent boundary with another tectonic plate.
