I'm guessing you're talking about the tectonic plates? Divergence.
Hot spots begin at where 2 plates move apart
Some move away from each other and create massive trenches normally in the sea bed, for example the Mariana Trench - 10,998 m.
Rift Volcanoes.
Because of plate tectonics. Because it's 2 plates underwater that are moving apart. Magma rise up to where the 2 plates are separating to fill in the gap. Seafloor spreading occurs underwater.
rift valley Answer 2 Continents are formed when continental plates pull apart.
When two continental plates diverge, a rift valley forms due to the pulling apart of the Earth's crust. Magma rises to fill the gap created by the separating plates, eventually leading to the formation of new oceanic crust. Over time, this process can result in the formation of a new ocean basin.
When magma pushes 2 plates apart. :)

It forms when the 2 plates converge or come apart
a spreading boundary is when 2 plates spread apart from each other.
divergent boundaries happen when 2 plates move apart or divide
Sea floor spreading 2 oceanic plates coming apart
When two tectonic plates spread apart, it creates a divergent boundary where new crust is formed as magma rises and solidifies between the plates. This process leads to seafloor spreading and the formation of features like mid-ocean ridges.
Most earthquakes happen at the plates because the plates (continental plates) sometimes move. If it moves and slides against another one going the other way, the plates' connecting part will tremble and shake and fall apart. It starts like this: 1. The plates start to move. The land between, roads, and other things bend. 2. The plates suddenly break, and some of the roads get carried away, so everything falls apart.
