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 is a force that is causing the plates to move at a midocean ridge?
friction - convection currents in the mantle drag the plates away from the hot rising zone below the ridgegravity - gravity pulls down on the cold dense plate being subducted under the continent, dragging the plate away from the ridge
What is the latitude range subartic?
the range is the lowest range there isn't there are no way from getting from the range.When the range come to a point it atomically stop.why is there so many range?
What is the difference between a rift valley and a mid ocean ridge and what kinds of boundaries do they form at?
A rift valley is a large depression where tectonic plates are moving apart, creating a gap in the Earth's crust. This forms at divergent boundaries, where plates move away from each other. A mid-ocean ridge is an underwater mountain range formed by the divergence of tectonic plates. They also form at divergent boundaries, specifically at oceanic spreading centers.
When was MidOcean Partners created?
MidOcean Partners was created in 2003.
Where do midocean ridges intersect the landmasses?

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.
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
What has the author Patricia Elaine Joan Rodgers written?
Patricia Elaine Joan Rodgers has written: 'Midocean archipelagos and international law' -- subject(s): Archipelagoes, Law and legislation
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.
Which two tectonic plates are separated by the midocean ridge?
The mid ocean ridge separates many plates, not just two. In the Atlantic Ocean it separates the Eurasian and African plates from the North American Plate and the African Plate from the South American Plate. In the Indian Ocean it separates the African Plate from the Antarctic, Australian, Indian Plates and the Australian Plate from the Antarctic Plate. In the Red Sea it separates the African Plate from the Arabian Plate. In the Pacific Ocean it separates the Pacific Plate from the Antarctic, Nazca, Cocos, and Juan de Fuca Plates and the Nazca Plate from the Cocos and Antarctic Plates.
The movement of the ocean floor on either side of a midocean ridge is best known as?
it is known as sea floor spreading. this is when the oceanic plates diverge or move apart which causes the magma from the mantle to rise forming new sea floor.
What is a force that is causing the plates to move at a midocean ridge?
friction - convection currents in the mantle drag the plates away from the hot rising zone below the ridgegravity - gravity pulls down on the cold dense plate being subducted under the continent, dragging the plate away from the ridge
What is a series of two or more adjacent cells in a column or row or a rectangular group of cells in Excel?
