Question
what geological feature typically forms at a divergent plate boundary beneath the ocean? question 14 deep ocean trench mountain range mid - ocean ridge fault line choose a response...
Brief Explanations
- Deep ocean trench: Forms at convergent boundaries (ocean - ocean or ocean - continent), where one plate is subducted.
- Mountain range: Can form at convergent boundaries (continent - continent collision) or due to volcanic activity (not typical for mid - ocean divergent).
- Mid - ocean ridge: At divergent plate boundaries beneath the ocean, magma rises to create new oceanic crust, forming a mid - ocean ridge.
- Fault line: Associated with transform boundaries (side - to - side movement) or other types of stress, not specifically with mid - ocean divergent.
