About Mid-ocean Ridge


A mid-ocean ridge is a seafloor mountain system formed by plate tectonics. It typically has a depth of ~ 2,600 meters and rises about two kilometers above the deepest portion of an ocean basin. This feature is where seafloor spreading takes place along a divergent plate boundary.
