UPDATE: New Crust is formed along the boundary, Overlying adjacent plates are pulled apart... those are 100% correct answers and i had my teacher check them

The correct answer is option E, Overlying, adjacent plates are pulled apart.

The convection currents in the mantle move the tectonic plates continuously. The direction of movement of the tectonic plates depend on the direction of the movement of the convection currents.  Every year the tectonic plates move in opposite  direction by 2-3 cm.  The convection current are just like conveyor belt below the molten rock in the mantle.
