At these boundaries, plates are being pushed apart by sea-floor-spreading. Sea-floor-spreading happens when magma rises up to fill a rift, creating new rock. This prosses creates new seafloor that pushes the old away.

Soon after they created the "theory of plate tectonics". This theory proposes that the lithosphere (read about in 4.2 concept 1) is broken into 12 major tectonic plates that move around  on the mantel because of sea-floor-spreading. This theory includes many others and together they prove to explain many geological events (Volcanos, mountains, earthquakes, ect).

-the Asthenosphere sits atop the upper manel. It is very hot and flows like liquid metal, this helps the lithosphere to slide along much easier.

(It can't be continental-continental because the crust would be too thick.) When one plate gets subducted under the other (read more about subduction in unit 4.2 concept 2), it begins to melt in the mantel. Since the crust is less dense then the mantel, it rises. The magma will then break through the lithosphere and explode out, eventually forming a volcano.
