Question
which type of boundary causes seafloor spreading?
Brief Explanations
Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. At these boundaries, tectonic plates move apart. Magma rises from the mantle to fill the gap. As the magma cools, it forms new oceanic crust. This continuous process adds to the ocean floor, causing seafloor spreading.
