What is created at the bottom of the ocean because of sea floor speading?

Mid-oceanic ridges are created where sea floor spreading takes place. These are called divergent boundaries and mark places where new sea floor is being created. They are tectonically active regions and can be characterized by undersea vents where magma comes up and cools quickly because of its contact with very cold water.

No. While new sea floor is being made in one place, at other places it is being destroyed, the diameter of the earth therefore remains constant overall.
