Study the illustration below of the plate tectonics affecting the continent of Africa. Divergent plates are causing the East African Rift Zone to spread. This area is a deep valley surrounded by mountains, similar to a mid-ocean ridge. What do you predict will eventually happen at the East African Rift Zone?
African plate tectonics showing the Eurasian Plate, Arabian Plate, Indian Plate and African Plate (Nubian) and (Somalian). A rift zone is shown extending from the edge of the Arabian Plate through the Indian Plate and extending into the African Plate (Somalian).
