Where do midocean ridges intersect the landmasses?
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.
Names of volcanoes under the sea?
Some examples of underwater volcanoes include Axial Seamount, West Mata Volcano, and Loihi Seamount. These underwater volcanic structures are often found at mid-ocean ridges and hot spot locations around the world.
Why are there volcanoes at mid ocean ridges?
Mid-ocean ridges and seamount relates to volcanoes by both having lava and it also comes out and cools
Is the Mid-Oceanic Ridge in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?
One of the midocean ridges is, but others are in other oceans, seas, and bays.
What occurs when two tectonics plates move away from each other?
mid-ocean ridges and volcanoes
What are the differences between ocean ridge and seamount?
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.

Where are the midocean ridges offset the most by faults?
At transform faults or transform zones.
Is the Mid-Oceanic Ridge in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?
One of the midocean ridges is, but others are in other oceans, seas, and bays.
What types of volcanoes form at mid-ocean ridges?
Rift volcanoes.
Why can volcanoes be constructive and a destructive?
Volcanoes can be constructive when they form islands and mid-ocean ridges
Do Ocean sediments become younger or older away from midocean ridges?
Older, as it moves away from the mid-ocean ridge the sediment gets thicker and older
What does the floor look like?
Mountains/ridges and underwater volcanoes
What are the 3 type of earthquakes?
(1)midocean spreading ridges, (2) subduction zones, and (3) transform faults.Normal fault, Reverse fault, and strike-slip fault
Does mercury have any cliffs on its surface?
Yes, it also has volcanoes and ridges. (:
