Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

At a divergent plate boundary, the tectonic plates are moving away from each other. This movement causes the creation of new crust, known as oceanic crust. The process by which new crust forms is called seafloor spreading. As the plates separate, magma rises from the mantle and fills the gap, solidifying to form new oceanic crust. Therefore, the correct answer to the question "What is formed at a divergent plate boundary?" is oceanic crust.
