type of plate boundary creates a zone of tension by
moving the plates apart?
A. convergent boundary
B. divergent boundary
C. transform fault
D. none of these
Answers
Answer:
divergent boundary
Explanation:
Divergent plate boundaries exist where tectonic plates are under tension— essentially being pulled apart. This tension leads to the upwelling of magma, which forces its way through the separating crust onto the surface.
The Correct Option is...
✔ B. divergent boundary
Explanation ⦂
The divergent boundary is a type of plate boundary that creates a zone of tension by moving the plates apart.
A diverging boundary is a place where plates move away from each other. When the mantle is released from the ground, the molten rock from the mantle opens and bursts along with the opening, forming a new crust. The plates formed from these start sliding away from each other and moving away from each other. The images around such areas run earthquake propagation centres. These areas are relatively small areas.
So option (A) is the correct answer.
