Mid- Atlantic ridge is a part of
constructive plate boundary or divergent plate boundary. This linear feature
lies in the midst of a two tectonic plates that are apart from each other.
Active divergent plate boundaries usually take place in the middle of oceanic
plates then become mid-oceanic ridges. In fact that a Mid- Atlantic Ridge is
mainly an underwater feature, some of its segments have an altitude that
extends above sea level. Its boundary is situated along Atlantic Ocean's bottom
and areas of the world's longest mountain range.

Answer:
<u>1. c. Peruvian coast, 2. c. Asia, 3. c. Paris, 4. Andes</u>
Explanation:
- Peru is located on the western coast of South America and faces the pacific ocean and located in the southern hemisphere it shares the longest border with brazil. Having a total area of 1,285,215.6 km square.
- Due to the latitude, mountain ranges and topography variations and the two oceanic currents like the Humboldt and El Niño which bring a diverse tropical climate of wt and dry spells to this region thus experiences a drought type conditions of the coasts of Peru.
- Places on earth most likely to encounter the trade winds are in Asia as these winds are moving in an east to west direction following the earth equatorial region, i.e 30 degrees North and South.
- To get the shortest flight from Los Angles to Moscow the plane would have to land in Paris as to refuel and thus making it the shortest flight by less than half-hour.
- Andes mountain runs parallel through the south American north to south borders.
Basalt is the main mineral that the oceanic plates are made up of.
