Sketch, label, and explain an oceanic divergent boundary (mid-ocean ridge). In addition, sketch, label, and explain in four stages how continental rifting can lead to the formation of a new ocean basin.

As explained with illustration.

Explanation:

A continental rifting is belt or a zone of the Continental lithosphere here the external formation takes place in zones and is an important sequence of the geologic features of the new oceanic basins. A rift occurs due to the breakup or the pulling away of the crustal masses by and the formation of a depression. As in the case of the mid-oceanic ridge where the central rift was the new ocean crust is formed and rifting is fond were the hotpots meet the triple junction and it evolves into the seafloor spreading.
