Seafloor spreading is a process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge. Seafloor spreading helps explain continental drift in the theory of plate tectonics.

Place a comma, semicolon, or colon where it is needed in the following sentence.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

I like to read several things: newspapers, magazines, books, and poetry.

Explanation:

I used bold font where I edited the sentence. When you use the colon(:), you are about to use a list. That is exactly what happens in this sentence, so you replace the semicolon(;) which is used to join two or more ideas.

Whenever you are at the end of a list, you always add a comma(,) at the end of the last item before "and," so I put a comma there.
