Answer:

Mid ocean ridges

Step-by-step explanation:

The volcanic landforms at divergent oceanic plate boundaries are mid ocean ridges.

A mid-ocean ridge is a mountain range that is situated under the water and created by plate tectonics. It is a volcanic landform which contains several mountains that are connected in chains. A mid-ocean ridge takes place when convection currents increases in the mantle under the oceanic crust and produces magma where two oceanic tectonic plates join together at a divergent boundary. Mid-ocean ridges separate the boundary between two tectonic plates and as a result of this, they are called divergent oceanic plate boundaries.
