The correct option is B. The newest crust on earth is located at the actual site of the floor spreading and as new crusts are formed they replace it. Thus, the older the crust the farther it is from the mid ocean ridge.
Sea floor spreading is a geological process in which tectonic plates splits apart from one another. It occurs at divergent plate boundaries.
For mutations to affect an organism's descendants, they must: 1) occur in cells that produce the next generation, and 2) affect the hereditary material. Ultimately, the interplay between inherited mutations and environmental pressures generates diversity among species.
The balanced equation will be 2HgO--->2Hg+O2
