Answer:

Mid-ocean ridges are found in the sea floor at divergent boundaries because both plates are moving away from each other creating the opening for the lava to sleep up. Mid-ocean ridges are where sea floor spreading occur by lava seeping up to the surface of the opening and cooling therefore forming new ground and pushing older layers of ground further away.

This is because of the adaptive mechanism and mutations the organisms have to respond to. Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this are the bills of a bird and the fur of bears that they generally need for their survival; birds for hunting, and bears to protect them from low climate areas.
