Question

at which boundary is the mid-atlantic ridge found in the atlantic ocean?
convergent
transform
divergent
rewatch

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Mid - Atlantic Ridge is formed at a divergent plate boundary. At divergent boundaries, tectonic plates move apart from each other. Magma rises from the mantle to fill the gap, creating new oceanic crust, which is how the Mid - Atlantic Ridge is formed. Convergent boundaries involve plates moving towards each other (leading to subduction or mountain building), and transform boundaries involve plates sliding past each other. So the correct option is the one labeled "Divergent".

Answer:

Divergent (the option labeled "Divergent" in the list of choices)
