Answer:

A rift valley is forming.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rift valley is a linear shaped lowland between several highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic rift or fault.

A rift valley is formed on a divergent plate boundary, a crustal extension or spreading apart of the surface.

The arrows show the movement of the tectonic plates.

Hope this helps.
