Answer:

The correct options are;

C. Divergent plate boundary

D. Normal faults

Step-by-step explanation:

Tensile stress tends to pull objects part by acting axially upon the object to pull the object on a cross section perpendicular to the objects cross-section

The most common stress in convergent plate boundaries is compression stress

The most common stress in divergent plate boundaries is tensile stress

In the presence of tensile stress, normal faults results in the raising of mountains due to their enormous forces

Therefore, the features of Earth's crust involving tension are divergent plate boundary and normal faults.
