What formed ocean crust?
Ocean crust is formed by intrusive magma at mid-ocean-ridges. The magma cools and solidifies into peridotite, basalt, or gabbro.
How are the mid-Atlantic ridges formed?
It was formed when there was linear gap formed below at the ocean floor... So when the hot magma came out from it, it began to cool and solidify forming mid atlantic ridges

How do scientist believe these underwater ridges are formed?
The major ridges in the oceans are most likely formed by the slow eruption of magma from the underlying mantle through a separating rift between two tectonic plates. When the magma contacts the ocean water the magma cools and solidifies into new rock.
