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.
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 associated with mid ocean ridges?
sea floor spreading
Which features are associated with divergant boundaries?
Mountain chains at ocean ridges
What is located in midocean ridges?
At mid-ocean ridges, tectonic plates are moving apart, creating new oceanic crust through volcanic activity. This results in the formation of underwater mountain chains and hydrothermal vents, which support unique ecosystems due to the high temperatures and mineral-rich waters.

Where are the midocean ridges offset the most by faults?
At transform faults or transform zones.

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 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
When was MidOcean Partners created?
MidOcean Partners was created in 2003.
What kinds of rocks are associated with ocean ridges?
Basalt rocks are commonly associated with ocean ridges due to the process of seafloor spreading where magma rises to the surface, cools, and solidifies. These basaltic rocks form the oceanic crust along the ridges.
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.
What are Mid-ocean ridges associated with?
sea floor spreading
What associated with mid ocean ridges?
sea floor spreading

Dermal papillae
Which features are associated with divergant boundaries?
Mountain chains at ocean ridges
