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...

Explanation:

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.

Answer:

Mid - ocean ridge
