Use the earthquake distribution map to answer the question.
Scientists have found that shallow and narrow bands of earthquakes occur at divergent boundaries.
Where would a divergent boundary occur?
between the South American and African Plates
between the Australian and Eurasian Plates
between the Eurasian and African Plates
between the Nazca and South American Plates

The easterly edge is a divergent boundary with the African Plate; the southerly edge is a complex boundary with the Antarctic Plate, the Scotia Plate, and the Sandwich Plate; the westerly edge is a convergent boundary with the subducting Nazca Plate; and the northerly edge is a boundary with the Caribbean Plate and the oceanic crust of the North American Plate.

If scientists have found that shallow and narrow bands of earthquakes occur at divergent boundaries. A divergent boundary would occur between the South American and African Plates

Although the question is incomplete as a result of lack of the earthquake distribution map, I would help you answer the question.

According to an earthquake distribution map, the easterly edge is between Africa, Antarctica and the Sandwich Plate, while the westerly edge is between the Nazca, Caribbean and North American Plates.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A
