Question

COMPARE AND CONTRAST THE TWO TYPES OF DIVERGENT BOUNDARIES

Answer 1

Answer:

Divergent boundaries: where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other. Convergent boundaries: where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another. Transform boundaries: where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.

Answer 2

Two types of divergent boundaries.

EXPLANATION:

There are two significant types of divergent boundaries:

1. Continental, and
2. Oceanic.  

• In divergent boundaries two of the plates create some distance from one another.  
• At the point when this occurs, magma surges up to fill the hole, making shiny new outside.  
• At the point when two continental plates veer, incredible break valleys can be formed.  

Components regularly found at divergent plate boundaries are:  

(1) mid-sea edges and crack valleys.  

(2) wide valleys and deltas.  

(3) sea channels and subduction zones.  

• The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is an illustration of divergent plate boundaries.
