Midocean ridges are areas where continents broke apart. Midocean ridges are closest to the landmasses in younger oceans. One example where a midocean ridge intersected a landmass is the Arabian sea, which was formed by the pulling apart of the Arabian Peninsula and Africa.
One of the midocean ridges is, but others are in other oceans, seas, and bays.

A friction ridge pattern is a pattern that is unique to an individual. The fingerprints are an example of a friction ridge pattern. The footprint is also a friction ridge pattern.
friction - convection currents in the mantle drag the plates away from the hot rising zone below the ridgegravity - gravity pulls down on the cold dense plate being subducted under the continent, dragging the plate away from the ridge

The pattern of magnetic striping on one side of the ridge was a mirror image of the striping on the other side of the ridge, indicating that the plates were moving equally in opposite directions, giving a plausible explanation for continental drift theory. Before this discovery, no evidence of a mechanism for plate tectonics existed. It was obvious after this discovery, that new crust was being created at the ridges.

The Mid Ocean Ridge would have magnetic striping. As the seafloor expands, new oceanic crust is spread in either direction. As this process continues over many years, the magnetic poles may switch, altering the magnetism in the new crust. The poles will switch back and forth, producing the magnetic striping that is easily discernible when examining the Mid Ocean Ridge and surrounding seafloor.
Older, as it moves away from the mid-ocean ridge the sediment gets thicker and older

The midocean ridges are the spreading centers where the plates are moving apart. The seamounts are extinct volcanos produced as the plate passed over a mantle hotspot.
Color patterns are generally a dark brown base with pale or white horizontal striping, but vary slightly between subspecies.
