Active zones of mid-ocean ridges and continent-to-continent rifting are examples of divergent boundaries. Convergent boundaries (destructive) occur where two plates slide toward each other to form either a subduction zone (one plate moving underneath the other) or a continental collision. At zones ...

A。解析:在板块构造学说中,离散型板块边界(divergent plate boundary)处板块是相互分离(move apart)的。B选项plates move together是板块汇聚型边界的情况,C选项plates slide past each other是板块转换型边界的情况,根据板块运动知识,本题答案为A,这里没有特殊语法运用,主要考查对板块运动不同边界情况的词汇理解。反...
The coexistence of divergent (spreading ridge) and convergent (subduction zone) plate boundaries at which lithosphere is respectively generated and destroyed is the hallmark of plate tectonics. Here, we document temporally- and spatially-associated Neoar

,112,124, in which (i) localized plate boundaries do not exist or do not form a global plate mosaic and (ii) horizontal surface motions are not predominantly driven by oceanic plate subduction (we classify this surface behavior as single lid tectonics125). Three out of four actively convect...
Until the 1960s sedimentary basins were explained and categorized in terms of geosynclinal theory (Dott, 1974, 1978; Mitchell and Reading, 1978). Such classic books as those by Kay (1951), Krumbein and Sloss (1963), and Aubouin (1965) had a profound impa
At the boundaries between these huge plates of rock and soil, the plates sometimes move apart, and magma, or molten rock, comes to the surface, where it's called lava. It cools and forms new parts of the crust. The line where this happens is called a divergent plate boundary. The ...
