The long narrow chain of underwater hills or mountains is called Mid-ocean ridges.
- Formed by tectonic plates' movement mid-ocean ridges are basically mountain chains under the sea.
- More than 90% of mid-ocean ridges are situated in the deep oceans. It can go to the depth of 2,600 meters and from the ocean basin's deepest point it can rise 2,000 meters.
- The Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a spreading centre that bisects the North and South Atlantic basins, was the first mid-ocean ridge found; thus the name "mid-ocean ridge."
- The mid-ocean ridge system is the world's longest mountain range, stretching over 65,000 kilometers (40,000 mi)
