When tectonic plates spread and goes apart they form a ridge, trench, and etc. the line is called a divergent boundary. On the opposite side it causes a convergent boundary when two plates come and crush each other or slides underneath the other forming volcanoes and mountains
a volcano forms and also when they bump into each other a volcano can form or an earthquake can form also
when the plates move away from each other they open up and magma is forced up, this is called constructive margins.
funsion
they make volcanoes
they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away
Lithospheric plates, which also are called tectonic plates, move towards or away from each other when an earthquake occurs.
No. Normally they move in opposite directions, and can crash into one another - when this happens mountains are formed or deep sea trenches made. There are also points where they move directly away form one another, this happens along mid oceanic ridges and the geographic feature that occurs in these regions are the Oceans.
Convergent: plates move into one another.Divergent: plates move apart.Transform: plates move sideways in relation to each other.
A. Divergent
Well, when earths plates move away from each other that's when it happens but move well then NO!
they move away form each other, so what ever the direction the plates are the move the apposite direction away
they move against one another
It creates a divergent boundary.
Lithospheric plates, which also are called tectonic plates, move towards or away from each other when an earthquake occurs.
Plates either move towards each other (convergent plates), away from each other (divergent plates) or slide next to each other (transform plates).
Seafloor continues to move away from the mid-ocean ridge and eventually comes into contact with another plate boundary. Ocean plates subduct underneath continental plates and are forced down into the lithosphere

A. Divergent
The diverging plates move away from one another in opposite directions.
