Lots of boundary in this world so it depends on the ones you are asking about if they are divergent, convergent and Transform  

divergent =<span> occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. 
convergent = w</span><span>hen two plates come together
Transform = </span><span>Two plates sliding past each other

hope this helps

Good morning, I will me glad to help you with this. Here are the three types of boundaries and the actions that occur in each one of them:

Divergent Boundary
: This occurs when two tectonic plates move away from one another. New crust on torn edges of the plates are formed in this process.

Convergent Boundary: This occurs when two tectonic plates come together (and sometimes bend down in seafloor trenches). Mountain ranges are formed in this process.

Transform Plate Boundary: This occurs when two tectonic plates slide past each other. This can create a linear fault valley or a undersea canyon. (No magma is formed in this process, but the crust is damaged)

Notice that at the divergent boundary, the crust is experiencing tensional stress, which is causing a normal fault that results
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

In a divergent plate boundary, two plates move away from one another. Due to this divergent movement of plates, seafloor spreading takes place in the ocean basin along the mid-oceanic ridge and rifting take place in the continental areas. Due to the stretching of the crust, the lithosphere becomes thin, and with more progressive spreading, it results in the eruption of magma at the seafloor. This magma is basaltic in nature, that reaches the surface due to the force exerted by the uprising magma forming convection cells in the mantle. This type of plate motion results in the expansion of the ocean basin and the rift valley in the continental areas forms seas and oceans with increasing time.

The rocks that are formed at the mid-oceanic ridge are the youngest as the magma cools and solidifies very rapidly here. With further moving away from this spreading center the age of the rocks increases.

The divergent plate boundaries are also responsible for the occurrence of deep-focus earthquakes, and it also leads to the formation of volcanoes in its adjacent sides.
