Do oceans have boundaries?

Do plate boundaries more commonly underlie the continents or the oceans

  • Answer:

    There are 7 major plates which contain part ocean and part continent. Some rare examples are those plate boundaries that divide themselves on continents such the one in Africa. It is a divergent plate boundary that is literally tearing Africa in half creating what is known as a rift valley for the time being until a whole new ocean is created from the separation.
