Answer:
Magma wells up at the center of the ridge, which pushes the old seafloor apart as new seafloor is created
Explanation:
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is formed at the divergent boundaries of the North American and Eurasian plates, and the South American and African plates. This basically means that these plates are moving away from one another, living thinner, fragile crust behind them. The magma from the mantle manages to penetrate through it relatively easy, and as it reaches the ocean floor it quickly cools off and creates new crust. The magma continuously rises, and it piles up more and more new crust, while in meantime pushing the old crust sideways and moving it further away from center of the ridge from the the ocean spreading occurs.
