Best Answer

The Atlantic Ocean is getting bigger and the Pacific Ocean is getting smaller. This is caused by the continental drift. The continental drift is the movement of the continents. Since the continents move 1 centimeter per year the crack in the middle of Atlantic is the mid ocean ridge. Magma is bubbling out and is adding to the ocean floor causing the continents to push away.
