Is mid-ocean ridges the result of plate convergence?

Not at all... Mid-ocean ridge is as a result of plate divergence.


Mid ocean ridges are the result of plate convergence?

Mid-ocean ridges are actually formed by plate divergence, not convergence. They occur at divergent tectonic plate boundaries, where tectonic plates move apart, allowing magma from the mantle to rise and create new oceanic crust. This process results in the formation of underwater mountain ranges and is associated with volcanic activity. In contrast, plate convergence typically leads to the formation of features like mountain ranges or subduction zones.


Were the Andes mountains formed as a result of ocean continental convergence?

The Andes Mountains :) ***** I would like to add the Himalayas, which rose when the Indian Plate collided with the European plate.


What three figures can result from an oceanic oceanic plate convergence?

mountian ranges ocean canyons and rift valleys


Where do mid ocean ridges?

Mid-Ocean Ridges forms where a continental plate slides under an oceanic plate. I hope this is what your looking for ! ! !:D


What is divergent plate boundry?

it is a type of plate boundary that move away from euchre's a result of the spreading of boundaries, new ocean floor is created. this mainly happens on the ocean floor and results in mid-ocean ridges


Where do most plate boundaries occur?

Ocean ridges


What is it called when tectonic plates move closer?

When tectonic plates move closer together, it is called plate convergence. This can result in the formation of features like mountain ranges and deep ocean trenches.


Which mountain ranges was the result continental continental convergence?

The Andes


Would the youngest ocean plate be foung at mid ocean ridges or continent edges?

At the ridges, where new oceanic crust is created.


At which type of plate boundary are mid-ocean ridges found?

Mid-ocean ridges are typically found at divergent plate boundaries, where tectonic plates are moving away from each other. These ridges are formed by the upwelling of magma from the mantle, creating new oceanic crust as the plates separate.
