As a result of tectonic plates that are moving from each other, the divergent boundaries form rifts, clift valleys or volcanic islands. My gf when we were talking on [dream marriage] also mentioned that those volcanic islands occur when plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.
