Mid-ocean ridges are segmented and contain which two basic types of plate boundaries linked together?

Mid ocean ridges occur where two tectonic plates diverge or move away from each other. This separation occurs under the ocean. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is such an example and is where the North and South American plates pull away from the Eurasian and African plates. Mid ocean ridges are usually a combination of divergent and transform plate boundaries. At transform boundaries plates slide past each other in opposite directions.
