It seems like C would make sense to me.

A mid-sea rindge (or edge) is a general term for a submerged mountain framework that comprises of different mountain extents (chains), regularly having a valley known as a crack running along its spine, structured by plate tectonics. This kind of maritime edge is normal for what is known as a maritime spreading focus, which is answerable for ocean bottom spreading. The inspired ocean bottom outcomes from convection ebbs and flows which climb in the mantle as magma at a direct shortcoming in the maritime outside layer, and develop as magma, making new hull after cooling. A mid-sea edge differentiates the limit between two tectonic plates, and hence is termed a disparate plate limit.
