Question

How do magnetic patterns in the rocks along the mid-oceanic ridges explain seafloor spreading? Will Medal!!!

Answer 1

A.

As oceanic crust sank beneath continental crust, the cooling rocks aligned with the earth's magnetic field, which periodically reversed. This periodic pattern was seen on one side of a mid-oceanic ridge.








B.

As new crust was added to the seafloor, the cooling rocks aligned with the earth's magnetic field, which periodically reversed. This periodic pattern was seen on one side of a mid-oceanic ridge.








C.

As oceanic crust sank beneath other oceanic crust, the cooling rocks aligned with the earth's magnetic field, which periodically reversed. This periodic pattern was seen on one side of a mid-oceanic ridge.








D.

As new crust was added to the seafloor, the cooling rocks aligned with the earth's magnetic field, which periodically reversed. This periodic pattern was symmetrical on both sides of a mid-oceanic ridge.

There is a "No Direct Answers" rule. This means that any answer where the asker can pluck out the answer without having to understand anything can be considered a “direct answer”.
For multiple choice, you can help the user by hinting at the correct answer by giving an explanation that uses key terms from the answer, or by leading the asker through the processes of elimination. :) Hope this helps! ^~^ I understand that it can be rather difficult to guide people on wordy questions, but the purpose of this site is to help people learn and so we should never stop trying to get people to learn :)
