Ocean ridges are formed by divergent boundaries.

Option-D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ocean Ridges are underwater physical features formed along the two divergent boundaries. When two divergent boundaries are adjacent to each other and they keep diverging, ocean ridges form as a result of increasing gap between them which ultimately results in the volcanic eruption which later spreads, cools down and forms as ridges under the oceanic surface while repetition of this process leads to the formation of large oceanic ridges.

It is often noticed that, the age of the ridges keeps on increasing as one moves from top to bottom.

Answer:

A mid-ocean ridge

Explanation:

A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

The best farming areas in the region are found in _____. A)Norway and Denmark B)southern Sweden and Norway C)Denmark and souther
Rama09 [41]

The correct answer is - C) Denmark and southern Sweden.

Scandinavia, in general, is not a region that is the best for farming, and the main reasons for that are the climate and the relief. Still, parts of it, because of the influence of the Gulf Stream can be relatively productive, though only for certain plants.

Denmark is almost entirely suitable for farming, and the reason for that is because it is a little peninsula with multiple islands, all under a big influence of the Gulf Stream and also the elevation is incredibly low.

The southern parts of Sweden as well can be used for farming, because the soil is fertile, the Gulf Stream is very influential, and its elevation is too very low. The inner part of the country though is not suitable for farming at all because the temperatures are more extreme and also the elevation increases, with the Gulf Stream also not being able to influence it.
