Question

question 34
normal faulting is generally observed at what type of tectonic boundary?
○ continent - continent convergent
○ transform
○ ocean - ocean convergent
○ divergent

Explanation:

Normal faulting occurs when the crust is being pulled apart. Divergent boundaries are where tectonic plates move away from each other, causing the stretching and thinning of the crust which leads to normal faulting. In contrast, convergent boundaries (continent - continent or ocean - ocean) involve plates coming together and transform boundaries involve lateral sliding of plates.

Answer:

D. Divergent
