Answer:

Heat from the mantle forms convection currents causing the tectonic plates to diverge and form ocean basins.

Explanation:

Ocean basins form as a result of convection in the mantle along divergent margins.

  • At a divergent margin, new crusts are being formed.
  • It is said to be a constructive margin because new materials reaches through to the earth surface from there.
  • The mantle convection pushes materials up  and down away from heating centers and to cold regions and back and forth.
  • This leads to the creation of cells which moves the overlying plate.
  • The mantle materials are then able to reach the surface to form new ocean basin.
