Explanation:

Brief Explanations

New crust is formed at mid - ocean ridges. This process is a key aspect of plate tectonics and seafloor spreading. The ocean is the location where new crust is created as magma rises and solidifies. Continents are mainly made of older crust. Mountains are formed by the collision of tectonic plates (either continental - continental or continental - oceanic) which involves the deformation of existing crust. The earth as a whole is not the specific location for new crust formation in the context of this question.

ocean
