What causes the formation of mountain ranges along the ocean floor?

Sediment from rivers causes added sediments until mountains are formed.
Plate tectonics pulls the ocean floor apart and magma pushes up forming mountains.
Underwater volcanos erupt, creating underwater mountain chains.
Sedimentary rock is forced together forming mountain ranges.
