This process involves the collision and subsequent attachment of different crustal blocks or terranes to a continental margin or another terrane.
The landforms that could develop at a continental and oceanic divergent plate boundary includes; Rifts and Volcanic Mountains.
The antonym for divergent boundary is convergent boundary. In a divergent boundary, tectonic plates move away from each other, while in a convergent boundary, they move towards each other. This can result in subduction zones, mountain formation, or continental collision.
The main types of divergent boundaries are mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed as tectonic plates move apart; continental rifts, where plates within continents separate, creating rift valleys; and back-arc basins, where oceanic plates are being subducted under continents, leading to extension and back-arc spreading.
Convergent on the western perimeter, divergent on the Easter perimeter.
Seafloor is created at divergent plate boundaries called the mid-ocean ridges.
continental plate? divergent boundary? convergent boundary? continental drift?
either a continental plate divergent boundary convergent boundary or a continental drift lol

A divergent continental plate boundary.

It is called a divergent plate boundary.
The landform feature that generally marks a divergent plate boundary is the plate tectonic. This is mainly responsible for the changes on the surface of the earth.Ê

No, when two continental plates diverge, a divergent boundary forms, not a transform boundary. At a divergent boundary, the plates move away from each other, leading to the formation of rift valleys or mid-ocean ridges. Transform boundaries occur where two plates slide past each other horizontally.
