Question

How does magma form at divergent tectonic plate boundaries?

Answer 1

I got this from NationalGeographic.org

"Decompression melting involves the upward movement of Earth's mosty-solid mantle..."The rifting movement causes the buoyant magma below to rise and fill the space of the lower pressure. The rock then cools into new crust."
I hope this helps you!!!:)
