Answer: As the plates diverge lava pushes through the mantle, cools and forms a new section of crust.

Explanation:  Plates moving slowly along side each other create friction and intense heat as they slide resulting in volcanic activity if the rock melts. Earthquakes can occur if the plate slips sliding away or towards each other.
