Answer:

Two couples of arrows show that a mid-ocean ridge is likely to be found:

the couple Pacific plate - Nazca plate

and the couple Nazca plate - Cocos plate

Explanation:

Mid-ocean ridges, as the name suggests, are elevated regions on an ocean floor that appear where two tectonic plates are slowly moving apart from each other. The distancing between the plates forms a valley between them from which lava can come up, which helps form a mountain-like structure.

As we can see in the picture, the Pacific and Nazca plates as well as the Cocos and Nazca plates have divergent boundaries, meaning they are moving away from one another. Therefore, the arrows between those two couples of plates indicate a likelihood of finding mid-ocean ridges.
