Question

the mummy feels the ground rip apart beneath the desert sands. what kind of boundary is that?

Explanation:

In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary is where tectonic plates move apart, causing the ground to "rip apart" as the plates separate. This matches the description of the ground ripping apart beneath the desert sands. Convergent boundaries involve plates moving toward each other (e.g., subduction or mountain - building), transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other, and "inactive" is not a standard plate boundary type for this kind of active rifting.

Answer:

D. Divergent
