Answer:

Earth has two poles North and South they are considered as the two corners of earth.

Explanation:

The imaginary i.e equator or zero degrees, the line divides the equator into two parts of North and South zones named as Poles. Seen as ends of the earth and composed of Positive and Negative physical properties.

Located at a 90 degree to North and South of the geographic equator. Generating magnetic fields. these have formed by the earth rotation and form a part of arctic and antarctic circles cover from 60 to 90 degrees on both the hemispheres.

The poles are a window of earth past, many times also here have been shifts in the history of the earth poles and they have shifted earlier in the north pole was located over Canada, and the south pole was near South America. Alfred Wegener in his plate tectonic theory also mentioned the polar wandering forces.

Use evidence from the section titled I'm Very Young to explain the difference in age between rock samples found on the Atlantic

White raven [17]

Answer:

The rocks at the bottom of the ocean are younger than the rocks on the continent. This can be pessible due to the process called Continental Drift.

Explanation:

For a long time the human being wondered what would be the age relationship between the rocks at the bottom of the ocean and the rocks of the continent. Which rocks were younger or older? The scientific advance that humanity achieved during the second world war allowed this question to be answered, as it was during this period that "sonar" was created, a device that is able to reveal the ocean floor

From the creation of this device, and other equipment, scientists were able to study the underwater mountains known as oceanic dorsals. During these studies, scientists were able to create methods of donating rocks and were able to conclude that the closer to the oceanic mountains the rocks were, the younger they were. On the other hand, the closer to the continent, the rocks were, the older they were. They will conclude that this must have been influenced by the phenomenon called continental drift, which refers to the movement of the masses of the planet over a period of time.
