Answer:

Ridge push

Explanation:

Ridge push results from the force exerted by gravity on the recently formed lithospheric rock near divergent plate boundaries. The lithosphere (crust) is being newly formed at these mid-oceanic ridges from the upwelling of magma from the mantle. Gravity pushes the cooled and hardened rock away from the ridge (downhill) and exerts a force on the entire plate that moves it towards a zone of subduction.

What is another term for air movement caused by differences in air pressure?
Lelu [443]

The answer is - wind.

Wind is the most commonly used term for air movement. It is created when there's two air pressures with different values, the air that has a higher pressure always moves towards the air that has lower pressure, thus creating air movement or wind. Depending on the difference in the air pressure between the two air masses we can have winds that are very strong, standard winds, or very slow winds. The bigger the difference between the air pressures the stronger the wind is, the smaller the difference in air pressures the slower the wind is.
