The direction iron in ocean rocks points

The new crust, formed at constructive/divergent boundary (regarding tectonic plate movement), has band-like patterns that orient in different directions (in alignment with earth's magnetic fields) and visible on the surface. This shows that it is newly made crust made from new magma.

Explanation:

These bands are firmed when the iron minerals in magma orient themselves with the earth's magnetic field before the magma cols into rock and lock the minerals permanently in position. This magma upwells from the mantle to fill the void made when the tectonic plates are moving away from each other.

The earth's magnetic field on the other hand is dynamic. Its angle increases gradually from the true north or south and then flips orientation over several hundred years. The iron minerals therefore will align differently depending on the orientation of the earths magnetic field at the time. This is why the new crust has band-like features visible on its surface.

Answer: The palpating heart race response is due to the sympathetic nervous system controlling the body's fight-or-flight reactions.

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system is in charged of controlling the body's fight-or-flight reactions. When facing a threat, these responses defaultly prepare our body to flee from danger or face the threat head-on.

Many of the physiological responses you experience during times of emotional streaming, such as sweaty palms or a racing heartbeat, are regulated by the sympathetic nervous system, a branching of the autonomic nervous system.
