When the Atlantic ocean grows in size due to a blanked?
When the Atlantic Ocean grows in size due to a rift or tectonic activity, it is typically associated with the process of seafloor spreading at mid-ocean ridges. As tectonic plates pull apart, magma rises to fill the gap, creating new oceanic crust. This process gradually widens the ocean basin, contributing to the overall growth of the Atlantic Ocean over geological time.
How much does the Atlantic ocean grows in size due to a?
Because of the drifting of continents on either side of the ocean which are north & south America on west and Europe & Africa on east.

What is happening to the size of the south Atlantic ocean?
The South Atlantic Ocean is currently expanding due to the movement of tectonic plates. This process, known as seafloor spreading, occurs along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge where new crust is formed and pushes the existing crust apart, leading to the ocean's enlargement over time.
Which ocean is growing due to seafloor spreading?
The Atlantic Ocean is growing due to seafloor spreading. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge runs down the center of the Atlantic, where new oceanic crust is continuously formed as tectonic plates pull apart. This process contributes to the widening of the Atlantic Ocean.
