Adjacent plates can move relative to one another in three different
ways.

DIVERGENT PLATE
BOUNDARY
Divergent plate boundaries involve two
ridge plates that are moving apart, causing two
plates to separate..
The separation of the plate allows the asthenosphere to rise towards the surface and partially melt. This
melting creates magma which erupts as lava. Then the lava cools and create an ocean floor or a new layer of
rock.

MARIANA TRENCH
The descending oceanic plate begins to melt. The Mariana Trench is the deepest trench and
molten materials begins to rise, creating a chain of the deepest place on Earth with a depth of
volcanoes or island arc, and oceanic trenches. 1 ,034 meters (36,201 feet) deep, which is
almost 7 miles.

The gliding of two tectonic plates builds up stress until it
exceeds the threshold of the rocks, during which the energy is
released causing major earthquakes to occur.
