Hi,

Rift valleys usually occur at a divergent boundary in a continental plate.

Answer:

C. at a divergent boundary in a continental plate

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A rift valley is a linear-shaped lowland between the several highlands of a mountainous range and is created by the geologic rift and faults that occur along the divergent plate boundary that causes the land surfaces to spread apart and are deepened by the forces of erosion forming a graben.
