which feature is most likely found at a divergent boundary? fold plateau fault - block mountain anticline or syncline
Answer
Brief Explanations:
At a divergent boundary, tectonic plates move apart. Magma rises to fill the gap, creating new crust. Mid - ocean ridges are common features at such boundaries. Folds (anticlines and synclines) are formed by compressional forces at convergent boundaries. Plateaus are large, flat - topped areas often formed by volcanic activity or uplift not directly related to divergent boundaries. Fault - block mountains are formed by tensional forces and faulting but not the most typical feature of divergent boundaries.
Answer:
None of the above options are correct. The most typical feature at a divergent boundary is a mid - ocean ridge.
