Constructive boundaries occur when two plates move apart which causes new oceanic crust to be formed and mid-ocean ridges are created by the build-up of molten rock on the seafloor due to the mantle building up. This new crust pushes the old crust aside and forcing the plates apart at a very slow rate. Basaltic lava rises which means new crust is being added continuously. Rift valleys are formed at constructive boundaries‚ where convection current causes the crust to be pulled apart causing fractures
