What is the major submarine feature along diverging plates?
The major submarine feature along diverging plates is the mid-ocean ridge. This underwater mountain range forms as tectonic plates move apart, allowing magma to rise from the mantle and create new oceanic crust. As the plates continue to separate, the ridge can develop rift valleys and volcanic activity, contributing to the dynamic nature of the ocean floor.
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.
A long chain of submarine volcanic mountains that runs through the world ocean is called the?
Mid-Ocean Ridge. It is formed by plate tectonics where new ocean crust is created as tectonic plates move apart, resulting in magma rising up and forming underwater mountains.

What is Chagos-Laccadive Ridge?
the Chagos-Laccadive ridge is a submarine mountain range located in the Indian Ocean. It runs North-South and is 960 kilometres long. The Maldives, an island nation off the coast of singapore, sits on coral reefs above this range.
What is the sea floor spreading theory?
Theory that oceanic crust forms along submarine mountain zones, known collectively as the oceanic ridge system, and spreads out laterally away from them.

What has the author Kay L Miller written?
Kay L. Miller has written: 'Bathymetric comparison of three mid-ocean ridge areas with slow- spreading characteristics' -- subject(s): Submarine topography
How do you sink the submarine on the impossible test app?
You drag the word "submarine" itself onto the submarine. Then you wait for it to sink.
What do you call submarine mountain more than a kilometer high?
Although there is no universal size limit, oceanographers call such a submerged mountain a "seamount." Many features will have names similar to non-nautical mountains, such as massif and ridge.
What is the song yellow by the beatles?
"Yellow Submarine"because my friend had to play it for a exam.
