Are the tops some mid-ocean ridges split by a steep-sided valley?
are the tops of some mid-ocean ridges split by a steep-sided valley
What fills the gap when the plates split?
Rift Valley
What are two Continent's split in two called?
If the split is complete then it's just two continents with names of their own (the current condition of the world). If they're in the process of splinting, the split is called a rift valley (biggest ones today are in Africa).
In what part of the ocean is new ocean floor being formed?
New sea floor or the oceanic floor forms through rifting or Mid Ocean Ridges. The ridge begins when Mantle convection from the Mantle rises up through the Moho to the surface. This causes a break between the continental floor and it begins to rift apart. The upwelling mantle will begin to cool off as it moves away from the centre forming new oceanic crust. The Younger crust is therefore in the middle of the rift with the older crust being on the edges.
The formation of The East African Rift Valley is associated with what kind of boundary?
The East African Rift is a divergent plate boundary. It is a divergent plate boundary because the land is being split apart. The East African Rift is the initial stage in the break up of a continent. If the rifting continues, a linear sea will develop. If rifting continues a full fledged ocean will develop.

Are the top of mid-ocean ridges sometimes split by a steep-sided valley?
yes
Why is the great rift valley split?
The Great Rift Valley was split because of an earthquake.
What was the theory Harry Hess proposed?
he proposed that mid-ocean ridges were areas where the floors of oceans had split apart
Into how many triangels can a five sided shape be split?
4
How was the rifted valley formed?
The rift valley was formed when the continents divided it split open a large area in Africa and formed The Great Rift Valley.
What fills the gap when the plates split?
Rift Valley
How was the great valley formed?
It is formed by an upwelling of hot mantle material under the valley (which has elevated the land) and then split it as the hot mantle moves sideways away form the center of upwelling. This results in volcanoes and a Graben fault system (a rift valley) above the upwelling. Essentially the Rift Valley is the start of a new ocean - the two sides of Africa are splitting apart.
How many triangles dos a 9 sided shape have?
answer may vary depending on how you split it
Who split the ocean in two?
me.no, it was moses :)
What differed ways can you break apart a hexagon?
A 6 sided hexagon can be split into 4 triangles
Where do the Indian and atlanic ocean split?
Cape Agulhas
