Describe in detail what causes seafloor spreading. Use as many key terms as possible.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading results from intense activity in the upper mantle which cracks the crust and pushes it away.

Explanation:

Seafloor spreading is a process that was first noticed by Alfred Wegener and was used by him in his theory of plate tectonics. There are three types of plate boundaries; convergent boundary, transform boundary, and divergent boundary. The last one is the one where seafloor spreading occurs.

The convection currents in the mantle are the process that breaks up the crust and move the tectonic plates, and when there is higher activity than usual at some place it results in break up the crust of an already existing tectonic plate.  Basically, magma rises at a higher rate and pushes through the crust, in this case, the oceanic crust, and it manages to gradually break through it and come out on the seafloor. By doing so, the magma and the pressure from below are pushing the two now divided parts of the plate. As the space between the two different parts becomes larger and large the density of the crust becomes smaller and smaller so more and more magma rises through. The magma quickly solidifies on the ocean floor and piles up, thus creating an underwater mountain range known as a mid-ocean ridge.

Non-Alaskan grizzly bears are indicator species for mountain ecosystems. In the nineteenth century, the grizzly bear nearly went
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

Animal indicator list is a barometer to check how a particular ecosystem is affecting the lives of particular animals. The indicator measures  stress or behavior in the ecosystem to know whether to protect  the specie or allow them undisturbed

This is to avoid or reduce to barest minimum incidences of extinction of such specie in the ecosystem.

The grizzly sudden reduction in number from well over 100,000 in California to less than nothing in 1942 triggered  the need to protect the grizzlies from human destruction and possible extinction. Grizzlies was a national specie and appeared in the flag of California. The population gradually reduced in most of the states of Idaho, Utah, Alaska and many more.

The grizzlies in 1975 were declared protected species to avoid being hunted or trapped by humans and to repopulate them in the areas where they once lived. Their future will depend largely on humans ability to allow them to coexist with them, by setting out a large area for them to live and regroup.

This will go to balance the ecosystem which has been tampered or disturbed by development.

Explanation:

It is because we are, this is the first time in human history, where we have technology and science is widely accepted, without being ridiculed by religious figures. We are truly out of the dark ages and the basic humanity of a few hundred years ago and we are now in the age of light, where people can be cured of many ailments and you don't even have to get up from your lazy buttocks to get food, you can just shout at a machine to do it.
