The prominent seafloor feature found in the central Atlantic Ocean is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This underwater mountain range runs down the center of the Atlantic Ocean, marking the boundary between the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate to the west and the South American Plate and African Plate to the east. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is associated with seafloor spreading, where new oceanic crust is formed as tectonic plates move apart.
