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.

<h3>What is Subduction zone?</h3>

This is referred to the area which is characterized by constant collision of two or more tectonic plates.

This zone contains the oldest sea floor because the oldest ocean crust is being pushed under a continental crust and destroyed and is usually farther from the mid-ocean ridges.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Aloft high pressure develops in cold air regions while low pressure develops in warm air regions

Explanation:

A thermally-driven circulation, or thermals are the movement of warm air that move to a higher level due to the buoyancy forces acting on them. That is due to the difference in densities between the warmed and cool air

Given that pressure = Density, <em>ρ</em> × Gravity, <em>g </em>× Height, <em>h</em>, we have that decrease in pressure (low pressure) is due to low density, therefore, the warm air having low pressure, moves upwards, due to their low density

Therefore, the best option is aloft, (as we move higher), high pressure develops in cold air regions while low pressure develops in warm air regions
