D.

The volcanic landforms at divergent ocean plate boundaries are _oceanic ridges____.

Explanation:

As two tectonic plates move away from each, they leave a vacuum in between the two plates. This vacuum is filled by upwelling magma from the mantle. As the upwelling magma cools it forms a mountainous ridge along the boundary – because the magma cools rapidly before it could spread further out on the surface. Examples of these landforms are the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise located at divergent tectonic boundaries.
