Where can divergent divergent boundary be found?

Most divergent boundaries can be found on the ocean floor. divergent boundaries create Rift Valleys An example of this is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge discovered by Harry Hess.

Do divergent boundaries cause island arcing?

No. Divergent boundaries cause mid ocean ridges (MORs) to form.


What do transform boundaries have in common with divergent 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.


Is subduction common at divergent plate boundaries?

No, subduction is not common at divergent plate boundaries. Divergent plate boundaries are characterized by plates moving away from each other, which creates new oceanic crust. Subduction occurs at convergent plate boundaries where plates collide and one descends beneath the other.
