No. Death Valley is near a transform plate boundary, but is not directly related to it. Death Valley is part of the Basin and Range province of North America. This province is an area of crustal extension not associated with any particular plate boundary.

A rift valley is evidence of which plate boundary?

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.

Which type of mountain forms because of a divergent plate boundary?

A rift valley forms due to a divergent plate boundary. As the plates move apart, the crust stretches and thins, creating a depression that can eventually develop into a valley with steep walls. An example of a rift valley formed by a divergent boundary is the East African Rift.

A rift valley is evidence of which kind of plate boundary?

A rift valley is evidence of a divergent plate boundary, where tectonic plates are moving away from each other. This movement creates a gap that can lead to the formation of a rift valley as the lithosphere is pulled apart.


What type of plate boundary created the East African Rift Valley?

The East African Rift is on the African plate. However, it is the point where this plate is splitting into two. These are the Somali plate and the Nubian plate. For more information visit, https://sites.google.com/site/wikieasierpages/east-african-rift
