Question

which plate boundary results in a mid - ocean ridge? (1 point) convergent - oceanic & oceanic convergent - oceanic & continental divergent - oceanic & oceanic divergent - oceanic & continental what is mechanical weathering? (1 point) the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions the physical breaking of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition the process of rocks melting due to extreme heat the dissolution of minerals in acidic conditions

Explanation:

Mid - ocean ridges form at divergent boundaries where two oceanic plates move apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust. Mechanical weathering is the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without altering their chemical composition.

Answer:

1. C. Divergent - Oceanic & Oceanic
2. B. The physical breaking of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition
