Question

question 8 of 25 what type of plate boundary is shown in the diagram? a. subduction boundary b. transform boundary c. convergent boundary d. divergent boundary

Explanation:

In the diagram, the tectonic plates are moving apart from each other. At a divergent boundary, plates move away from one another, allowing magma to rise up from the mantle and create new crust. Subduction boundaries involve one plate being forced under another. Transform boundaries have plates sliding past each other horizontally. Convergent boundaries have plates moving towards each other.

Answer:

D. Divergent boundary
