many thanks 👍 how can a divergent upwelling magma flow becomes convergent? is it changing by itself over time?

I dont see why it has to be a cycle? Or am i missing something? As an example, why cant the Atlantic keep growing until the Pacific has closed entirely?

The noise in the background is very distracting. The music noise spoils the video.
