Answer:

Mid-Ocean ridge forms at a "subduction zone" between an "oceanic and a continental plate".

Step-by-step explanation:

  • When dense oceanic plates slide under a lighter plate, subduction zones are created. These oceanic plates are created at oceanic ridges. Oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, earthquakes are various features associated with subduction zones.
  • Continental shelf is the edge extending from the coastline to a drop point.
  • Lithosphere consists of upper mantle and crust located on the outer part of the earth.
  • Magnetic anomalies are the variations in the magnetism of rocks.
