Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Sea-floor spreading refers to the splitting of the ocean floor thereby leading to the expansion of the seas and oceans. This process adds new materials to the ocean floor along the mid-oceanic ridge. This idea of sea floor spreading allowed the scientists to demarcate that the rocks that are present along the mid oceanic ridge are the younger and the rocks that are present away from the rocks are the older rocks.

Along the mid-oceanic ridge, the rocks are comprised of magnetic strips that shifts their orientation every time it erupts. This separation of sea floor takes place due to the plate tectonic movement. It generates earthquakes of various intensities in the subduction zone. The rocks of the oceanic crust are basaltic in nature and are very dense compared to the continental crust.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

The terrain of Central Asia is characterized by all of the following except<br>​
kondor19780726 [428]

The correct answer is - ocean beaches.

Central Asia is a landlocked region, and the only water bodies that it has contact with are few large lakes, like the Caspian one. The region has no sea or ocean nearby, thus ocean beaches are not something that can be found.

Central Asia in general is a region that is arid and semi-arid, while the terrain varies between vast lowlands and very high mountains. The lowlands are mostly covered with grasslands or with deserts. The high mountains on the other hand, give a big contrast, as they are actually having numerous glaciers on them, despite being surrounded by deserts and steppes.
