Q

Explain how sea floor spreading occurs

A
  1. as plates diverge magma rises from the atherspnoshpere d and cools to form new crust.
  2. overtime the crust drag apart and new crust forms.
  3. eventaully they can form mid ocean ridges

Q

How does rational sliding occur

A

at constructive plate margins
magma rises and forms new crust
which heats the surrounding rock causing it to expand cforming a slope.
as the rock cools and become dense dnse.
the rock starts to move down slope.
The pressure from the desener rock causes the plates to move apart.

Q

how do rift valleys form

A

where plates diverge Granth land the rising magma causes the continental crust to budge and fracture causing fault lines
as the plates move apart the crust between the fault line drop down to from a Rift Valley
