Hot and less dense material below the
Earth’s crust rises towards the mid-ocean ridge. A mid-ocean ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics.
<span>As this material flows sideways, it
creates a crack in the crust where magma will flow out. This magma cools down
and becomes the new seafloor.</span>

Tectonic plates are parts (pieces) of the outermost layer of Earth: the Crust. (the outermost part of the mantle is also often included in the plates). This means that the land in the middle of the plates is relatively stable while the borders of the plates can be in movement - after all this is where two pieces meet. Plate borders are where the vocanoes and Earthquakes often take place.
