Question

what type of plate boundary caused the southeast indian ridge to form? transform convergent hot spot divergent rewatch

Explanation:

Mid - ocean ridges like the Southeast Indian Ridge form at divergent plate boundaries. At divergent boundaries, tectonic plates move apart. Magma rises from the mantle to fill the gap, creating new oceanic crust and forming the ridge. Transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other, convergent boundaries have plates colliding (with one often subducting), and hot spots are areas of volcanic activity not directly related to plate boundaries in the way mid - ocean ridges are.

Answer:

D. Divergent
