Answer:

The movements involved in plate tectonics acted like a giant conveyor belt for earths lithosphere and the Mid ocean ridges occur where mantle material rises upward, creating new seafloor crust and pushing plates apart.

Explanation:

How does this action explain the differences between seafloor crust and continental crust?

The movements involved in plate tectonics acted like a giant conveyor belt for earths lithosphere and the Mid ocean ridges occur where mantle material rises upward, creating new seafloor crust and pushing plates apart.

Main differences between sea floor crust and continental crusti is that oceanic crust and continental crust are less dense than the mantle, but sea floor crust is denser than continental crust. It also noticed that subduction occurs at ocean trenches, where dense seafloor crust pushes under less dense continental crust, thereby returning seafloor crust to the mantle. The subducting seafloor crust may partially melt, with lower density material melting first and erupting from volcanoes as new continental crust.

What is one reason Turkey is having difficulty becoming a full member of the European Union?
Schach [20]

Its C but more accurately-

Turkey has a population of 75+ million and if the country entered the EU today, they would be the second largest member state behind Germany. This would mean an instant shift of power in almost every EU institution, more notably the European Parliament where seats are distributed to member states according to population. Turkey would instantly become a key player in European politics and would have more influence than the traditionally core countries, France, Italy, and the UK.
