In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary or divergentplate boundary (also known as a constructiveboundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other.

Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. At transform boundarieslithosphere is neither created nor destroyed. Manytransform boundaries are found on the sea floor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges. California's San Andreas fault is a transform boundary.
