A divergent boundary is important because it is where tectonic plates are moving away from each other, causing new crust to form from magma rising to the surface. This process helps drive the movement of Earth's plates, shaping the continents and ocean floor, and contributing to the Earth's geological processes.

What is a sentence with the word divergent boundary?
Often, a divergent boundary within a continent will produce rifts, which will produce rift valleys. A divergent boundary may also be referred to as an extensional boundary, a constructive boundary, or a divergent plate boundary.
