Since it is called the 'mid ocean ridge' , it is in the middle of the ocean, far from land/countries.
However, with one exception, Iceland. The mid Atlantic Ocean ridge continues above the surface of the ocean, and has formed the island of Iceland.
What else can I help you with?
The chain of mountains that extends into all of the ocean on Earth is the?
Mid-Ocean Ridge
What part of the ocean floor is part of the continuous under water mountain range that circles earth?
The part of the ocean floor that is part of the continuous underwater mountain range that circles Earth is known as the mid-ocean ridge. It is a long mountain chain where tectonic plates are moving apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust. The mid-ocean ridge is the largest mountain range on Earth, stretching over 60,000 kilometers.
What technology did scientists use in the mid-1900s to map the mid-ocean ridge?
Sonar.
How many mid ocean ridges are there?
There are several mid-ocean ridges around the world, with the most well-known being the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, East Pacific Rise, and the Indian Ocean Ridge. These ridges are underwater mountain ranges where tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new ocean crust.
What is a long and undersea mountain chain called?
A long undersea mountain chain is called a mid-ocean ridge. These ridges are formed by tectonic plates spreading apart, allowing magma to rise and create new oceanic crust. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is one well-known example of a mid-ocean ridge.
What countries are part of the mid ocean ridge spreading center?
Countries that are part of the mid-ocean ridge spreading centers include Iceland, located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and parts of Antarctica, where the East Pacific Rise intersects the Southern Ocean. These areas are often remote and not associated with specific countries.
New ocean floor is created at what part of an underwater mountain chain?
Mid-ocean ridge. An example, is the mid-atlantic ridge.
Which part of the ocean floor is part of continuous underwater mountain range that circles earth?
Mid- ocean ridge is the part of the continuous underwater mountain range that circles earth.
What part of the ocean spreads when old crust melts?
mid-ocean ridge
What is an mid - ocean ridge?
The Mid-Atlantic ridge.
Widest part of the great rift valley?
mid-ocean-ridge
What is the name of the landmass through which the mid-ocean ridge in the Atlanitic Ocean passes?
The landmass through which the mid-ocean ridge in the Atlantic Ocean passes is called Iceland. It is a volcanic island located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and is a part of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.
The chain of mountains that extends into all of the ocean on Earth is the?
Mid-Ocean Ridge
What is the global mid- ocean ridge?
Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
What is an example of mid-ocean ridge?
The Mid-Atlantic ridge.
Do most of the volcanoes of the mid-ocean ridge rise above the oceans surface?
No, most of the volcanoes along the mid-ocean ridge do not rise above the ocean's surface. These submarine volcanoes are typically under the water and form part of the continuous volcanic activity that occurs along the ocean ridges. Only a few volcanoes along the mid-ocean ridge, such as Iceland, rise above the ocean's surface.
What part of the ocean is the abyssal zone in?
The bit between the mid ocean ridge and the continental rise.
