Answer 1

Yes, you would expect to see a mountain range at a mid-ocean ridge

Answer 2

Answer:

No, as the mid oceanic ridges are place where the new crust is formed and hence volcanic mounts.

Explanation:

• The occurrence of the magmas o the earth surface are formed by the presence of the mid-oceanic ridges that release the lavas that reaches the surface and the folds in the mountains caused by the compressional plate margin  

• And these are found along the destructive plate margins while the divergent  plates or the constructive plate margins are found near the ridges and are sources of the volcanic zones.

• Below the mid-oceanic ridges lie the asthenosphere and are the point of the release of the pressure and the lavas which slowly forms the plates and the ridges.
