What type of boundary is along ocean ridges?
Constructive or divergent. The ridge formed is of basaltic rock type (though this is a generalisation), and is a source of volcanic activity. Iceland was formed as a result of the sea-floor spreading.
What mountains were formed by a divergent boundary?
The Himalayas are formed at a continental-continental convergent boundary.The Andes are formed at an oceanic-continental boundary.
What land features are formed from a divergent boundary?
Mid-Ocean Ridge if the divergent boundary is underwater.Read more: What_feature_is_formed_in_divergent_boundary
What boundary is it called when new crust is being formed?
Divergent Boundary, (Constructive Boundary).
What is in the north Atlantic Ocean is a volcanic island formed over a hot spot on a divergent plate boundary?
I believe this is Iceland, however it is not necessarily a hotspot as such, as notable hotspots do not occur on plate boundaries. An example of a hotspot is under Hawaii and neighbouring islands.
When the ridge in the middle of the Atlantic ocean formed along what boundary?
Divergent boundary
What type of boundary is formed when plate separate?
Divergent boundary is formed
What feature is formed in divergent boundary?
A divergent boundary's feature is a Mid-Ocean Ridge if the divergent boundary is underwater.

A boundary is formed when plates separate.?
This is called a divergent boundary.

What happens at a divergent boundary?
At this type of boundary, two tectonic plates move apart from eachother. This movement of plates causes new crust to be formed. Examples of the work of divergent boundaries are present at deep ocean trenches and volcanic islands, like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Hope that answers your question for you
Where new crust is formed?
New crust is formed at a divergent boundary
