Question
in which two places do divergent boundaries occur?
○ land and oceans
○ oceans and volcanoes
○ volcanoes and lower mantle
○ lower mantle and land
Divergent boundaries occur where tectonic plates move apart. On land, rift valleys (like the East African Rift) form. Under oceans, mid - ocean ridges (like the Mid - Atlantic Ridge) form. Volcanoes are a feature of boundaries, not a place where boundaries occur. The lower mantle is a layer of the Earth, not a place for divergent boundaries. So the correct option is the one with land and oceans.
