Answer:
Hi friends
Explanation:
As the two move apart, mid-ocean ridges are created as magma from the mantle upwells through a crack in the oceanic crust and cools. ... These continual convection currents, called convection cells, help to move the plates away from each other to allow more crust to be created and the sea floor to grow.
