As the two tectonic plates on either side of each side of the ridge pull away from each other the ground weakens and eventually boiling rock/magma pushes up like an underwater volcano. This volcano dosent have much force though. This magma quickly cools forming new land, like the Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland.In short Melted rocks that have cooled
Knowledge of undersea features such as the Midatlantic Ridge gradually grew during the 19th century as accurate hydrographic surveys were made across the world. The ridge is many thousands of miles long, so parts of it would have been discovered at different dates years apart.
it corresponds to the south american, african, north american, and eurasian plates
True!
A ridge is a geological feature that features a continuous elevational crest for some distance. If the ridge is under the ocean or sea, then it is called a submarine ridge.
Soapstone Ridge is a mafic-ultramafic geological complex located in the Piedmont region, south-east of Atlanta, Georgia on a 25-square mile area in DeKalb County and neighboring Fulton, and Clayton Counties. Many archaeological sites, including Late Archaic quarry sites dated between 600 BCE and 1500 BCE, occur on Soapstone Ridge. At least 17 quarry sites and 23 workshops sites have been located on Soapstone Ridge.
Iceland is a volcanic island on the midatlantic ridge, separating the North American Plate to the west from the European Plate to the east.

The Mid-Atlanic Ridge is the divergent boundary that is responsible for seafloor spreading. Consisting mostly of divergent boundaries, with transform faults as well, this is the site where new oceanic crust is added, increasing the size of the ocean. This location is dotted with underwater volcanoes as igneous basaltic magma is added to fill in the gap left as the oceanic plates drift away.
What is a horizontal ridge made in a hillside to create farmland?
True!
What is an ocean ridge made up of skeletal remains of tiny sea animals
whats the difference between midAtlantic and new England
