Question
ocean ridges generally are located:
a. near the continental rise.
b. at submarine canyons.
c.}=,
Brief Explanations
Ocean ridges are formed at divergent plate boundaries, which are also known as spreading centers. At these locations, tectonic plates move apart, and magma rises to create new oceanic crust. Continental rises are at the base of continental slopes, submarine canyons are deep - V shaped valleys, and ocean trenches are at convergent boundaries (where one plate is subducted).
