What else can I help you with?
What do under ocean divergent boundaries create?
it makes mid-oceanic ridges
Where does seafloor spreading take place?
Mid-Ocean ridges.
Mid-ocean ridges show where oceans are getting A. SmallerB. LargerC. Destroyed?
B. Larger. Mid-ocean ridges are underwater mountain ranges where tectonic plates are spreading apart, allowing magma to rise and create new oceanic crust. This process contributes to the growth of oceans.
How ocean destroy beaches?
the cause is erosion and long something
What kind of landforms do divergent boundaries make up?
Divergent boundaries create landforms such as rift valleys and mid-ocean ridges. Rift valleys form on continents when land is pulled apart, while mid-ocean ridges develop along the ocean floor as new crust is created.
Marine magnetic anomaly belts run parallel to?
Mid-Ocean Ridges
When were Mid-Ocean ridges first discoerverd?
The Mid-Ocean ridges were first discovered in the 1950's
Do divergent plate boundaries only occur on the ocean floor?
No, divergent plate boundaries can occur both on the ocean floor and on land. When they occur on the ocean floor, they create mid-ocean ridges, while on land they can create rift valleys.
Compared to ocean crust near deep-sea trenches crust near ocean ridges are?
Compared to ocean crust near deep-sea trenches, crust near ocean ridges is generally younger, thinner, and hotter. Ocean ridges are sites of active seafloor spreading where magma rises to create new crust, while deep-sea trenches are associated with subduction, where older, denser crust is pulled back into the mantle. As a result, the crust at ocean ridges is also less dense and more buoyant than the crust found near trenches.
Does sea floor spreading create or destroy new oceanic crust at mid ocean ridge?
Sea floor spreading creates new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges. Magma rises to the surface, cools, and solidifies to form new crust as tectonic plates move apart. This process contributes to the continuous expansion of the ocean floor.
Can you see a picture of ocean that has ridges?
go to google and type mid ocean ridge, and there will be pictures of oceans with ridges!
What is a oceanic ridges?
a ridge in the ocean
