What happens the age of rock with distance from the mid ocean ridges?
Sorry for this late response,but basically, as the plates move farther away from the mid-ocean ridges, the older it gets..! Hope this helps! ^^
Does magma from the earth oozes from the cracks at mid ocean ridges?
Yes, magma from the earth oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Does Magma from Earth's interior oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Does magma from earth interior oozes from the cracks at mid ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
How do mid ocean ridges support the idea of continental drift and the theory of plate tectonics?
New crust forms at mid-ocean ridges.
What is formed when divergence happens on the sea floor?
Mid ocean ridges
Where does seafloor spreading take place?
Mid-Ocean ridges.
What happens the age of rock with distance from the mid ocean ridges?
Sorry for this late response,but basically, as the plates move farther away from the mid-ocean ridges, the older it gets..! Hope this helps! ^^
What caused the mid ocen ridge?
sea-floor spreading
Which is associated with mid-ocean ridges?
Sea-Floor Spreading is associated with Mid-Ocean Ridges.
When were Mid-Ocean ridges first discoerverd?
The Mid-Ocean ridges were first discovered in the 1950's
What happens when the oceanic crust is increasing along mid-oceanic ridges?
when the crust increase the sea leavels beacem higher
Do mid ocean ridges destroy or create something?
Yes. Mid Ocean Ridges create new oceanic crust.
Is the mid ocean ridges a steep sided valley at the center of a mid ocean ridge?
yes, the mid ocean ridges are a steep sided valley at the center of a mid ocean ridge
True or False Mid-ocean ridges are actually underwater mountain ranges?
It is true that mid-ocean ridges are underwater mountain ranges. These ridges are long, seismically active submarine ridges associated with seafloor spreading.
Does Magma from Earth's interior oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
At which type of plate boundary are mid-ocean ridges found?
Mid-ocean ridges are located at undersea divergent plate boundaries.
