The area where the sea floor is oldest is in the area of the subduction zone near an ocean trench and is denoted as option C.

One astronomical unit is defined as the distance between Earth and the moon.
Molodets [167]
No, this is false!

One astronomical unit is defined as the distance between the Earth and the Sun, not the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

It's used as a unit of measurement especially for distances in the Solar system, since it gives us human an intuitive understanding of the distances.
