What else can I help you with?
What are often created from magma pouring out of a volcano?
Mountain
When magma rises up through the sea floor rifts and cools to form ocean floor?
When magma rises through sea floor rifts, it cools and solidifies into new oceanic crust as part of the process known as seafloor spreading. This creates new crust at the boundaries of tectonic plates, contributing to the continual movement and renewal of the Earth's outer shell.
What is the crack in the ocean floor through magma rises?
The crack in the ocean floor where magma rises is called a mid-ocean ridge. At these underwater mountain ranges, tectonic plates separate and magma rises to fill the gap, creating new oceanic crust. This process is known as seafloor spreading.
What happens when magma flows in a horizontal direction along rock layers?
The magma forms sills and magma chambers.
What type of mountain forms from the magma that is created by sea-floor spreading?
A volcanic mountain forms from the magma that is created by sea-floor spreading. This magma rises to the surface and solidifies, creating a volcanic mountain range along the mid-ocean ridge where sea-floor spreading occurs.
What is the theory that occurs when magma is pushed upward and flows through the openings in the ocean floor?
this usually happens when the sea floor spreads open.
What happens at constructive boundaries?
Creation of new crust through up swelling and out rising of magma to cover areas of sea floor spreading or lithospheric seperation.
What happens after magma erupts along mid ocean?
The magma spills over the ridge and pushes the old sea floor away toward a subduction zone where the old sea floor melts.

Mountain
What happens to magma after it erupts onto the ocean floor?
The magma spills over the ridge and pushes the old sea floor away toward a subduction zone where the old sea floor melts.
What is the effect of magma pushing up through cracks in the ocean floor?
push and a pull
What happens at a ridge?
magma comes through the ocean surface and makes volcanoes
What happens to the ocean floor the farther the the oceanic lithosphere is from a mid-ocean ridge?
Magma rises and slidifies and creates a new crust.
What happens to the ocean floor the farther the oceanic lithosphere is from the mid ocean ridge?
Magma rises and slidifies and creates a new crust.
