I am going to make this easy. The answer is DIVIDE!
The Answer Would be A, Collide. XD Content Mastery
collide
yes because the plates are pulling apart from one another which creates a trench
If you are referring to continental drift then it is mantle convection that moves some plates away from each other and some towards each other. Heating of the mantle closer to the core and then cooling of the mantle near the surface causes a circular effect, the plates (which float on top of the mantle) get dragged around by the circular movement.
plates puled apart
the plates move apart because of plate boundaries !:)
Plates move apart on divergent plate boundaries.
collide
Yes they do.
Sea floor spreading occurs due to the movement of tectonic plates away from each other. This movement creates a gap or rift at the mid-ocean ridge where magma rises up from below the Earth's crust, solidifying to form new crust. Over time, this process results in the continuous widening of the sea floor.
yes because the plates are pulling apart from one another which creates a trench
Constructive because new land is 'constructed'
collide
The process called plate tectonics is responsible for plates pulling apart. Over time, and with the combination of carbon dioxide, erosion, and force, plates are able to pull apart. This will eventually cause some plates to separate from one another.
They either slide apart or slide together. If they slide apart, over millions of years they form oceans or things like the grand canyon. If they collide they form mountains and volcanos. They bump into each other and move away.
a volcano is a rupture or opening in the earths crust. caused by convergent (coming together) or divergent (moving apart) plates

tectonic movement can cause tectonic plates to collide, drift apart, or slide across one another
