What is the theory that explains how new crust is formed along a great crack in Earth's ocean floors?
The creation of oceanic crust at the mid-ocean ridges is part of the all encompassing theory of plate tectonics. The mid-ocean ridge is a volcanic feature caused by the spreading apart of oceanic plates as part of plate tectonics. The sea floor at the ridges are uplifted by rising magma. The rising magma is part of a process of heat transfer from the interior of the Earth to the surface known as a convection current. As the rising magma cools, it forms new crust which becomes part of the ridge.
