What is Seafloor Spreading?

Occurs when two oceanic plates move away from one another creating new oceanic crust.

What happens in a Divergent Plate Boundary?

Plates move away from each other due to the rising convection currents and lateral magma flow. The magma fills in the gap, cools down and creates new crust
