the most famous divergent fault is the san Andreas fault
EDIT: Actually, the San Andreas Fault is a Transform boundary. A Transform Boundary is when two plates are rubbing against each other while going opposite ways. A Divergent Boundary is when two plates move away from each other. Scientists have not pinpointed and named a Divergent Boundary but Divergent Boundaries usually occur under water in the sea, also called Sea Floor Spreading.
My girlfriend broke up with me, saying that we were developing divergent boundaries. In plate tectonics, divergent boundaries are linear features that exist between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other.
Convergent and divergent boundaries are terms used in plate tectonics to describe the juncture at two plates and how they move in relation to each other. Divergent plates move apart and convergent move towards each other.
Seafloor is created at divergent plate boundaries called the mid-ocean ridges.
There are two plate boundaries that cause volcanoes. They are the divergent and convergent plate boundaries.
Both transform boundaries and divergent boundaries involve movement of Earth's tectonic plates. However, transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other horizontally, while divergent boundaries involve plates moving away from each other.
Divergent Boundaries - A boundary between two lithoperic plates that are moving apart .
Divergent and indivergent
Divergent and indivergent
They are not similar, divergent boundaries are where the move apart. transform boundaries are where the two plates rub together and move in opposite directions with great force.

Divergent boundaries are tectonic plate boundaries where two plates move away from each other. This movement results in the upwelling of magma from the mantle, creating new crust. Divergent boundaries are typically found along mid-ocean ridges.
divergent boundary
convergent boundaries collide but divergent boundaries move away from each other.
Divergent boundaries - two plates Pull away from each other. Convergent boundaries - when two plates collide forming trenches or causing earthquakes. Tranform boundaries - two plates slide past each other
