Question
which describes the boundary where earthquake activity occurs along rift valleys?
○ divergent boundary in the ocean
○ divergent boundary on land
○ convergent boundary in the ocean
○ convergent boundary on land
Brief Explanations
Rift valleys form when tectonic plates move apart (a divergent boundary) on continental landmasses, and this movement causes earthquake activity along the rift zone. Oceanic divergent boundaries form mid-ocean ridges, while convergent boundaries involve plates colliding, not rifting.
