a ridge in the ocean
When magma emerges between two diverging oceanic plates, it forms a mid-ocean ridge. This geological feature consists of a series of underwater mountains created by the upwelling of magma, which solidifies as it cools upon contact with seawater. The process of seafloor spreading occurs at these ridges, contributing to the formation of new oceanic crust. An example of a mid-ocean ridge is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
You would find a mid-ocean ridge at an oceanic-oceanic plate divergent boundary. This ridge is formed by the spreading apart of the two plates, allowing magma to rise and create new oceanic crust.

hit the books!!
Plates on either side of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are oceanic plates.
haha i really dont know
The Oceanic Crust close to the Mid Ocean Ridge is thinner than that Oceanic Crust far away from the ridge. This is due to tensional forces, as a result of crustal expansion and rock fracturing during the formation of the ridge.the oceanic crust is thinner
An equal amount of oceanic crust is being subducted at the convergent plate boundaries as is being created at the mid-oceanic ridge.

The mid-ocean ridge is formed along a divergent or constructive plate boundary between two plates of oceanic crust.
