Question
the image above is of a plate boundary. which 3 choices below relate to this specific type of plate boundary shown above?□ at this plate boundary older crust is being recycled□ it is a convergent plate boundary□ subduction zones form at this type of plate boundary□ at this plate boundary new crust is forming□ it is a divergent plate boundary□ rift zones form at this type of plate boundary
Brief Explanations
- The image shows tectonic plates moving apart, with magma rising to fill the gap: this is a divergent plate boundary.
- At divergent boundaries, rising magma cools and creates new crust.
- Rift zones (like mid-ocean ridges or continental rifts) are the landforms associated with divergent boundaries.
- Convergent boundaries, subduction zones, and crust recycling describe the opposite type of plate interaction where plates collide.
