Answer:

B. Aerobic bottom water

D. High organic productivity in the overlying oxygen rich water

Explanation:

A Shale is a sedimentary rock usually formed from silt and clay-size mineral. There are different colors of Shale. The Black Shale is formed under anaerobic conditions. This means that oxygen is deficient in the water where the Shale forms.

A little amount of organic materials is required for the formation of Black Shale and because Black Shale is formed in an environment lacking oxygen, an oxygen-rich water would not be necessary for its growth. Sediments are necessary in the formation of Black Shale.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

D. Seafloor bedrock is younger near the ridge and older farther away.

Explanation:

In a divergence boundary oceanic plates or continental plates move apart. The plates moves apart causing an uprising of molten magma to form a new crust. The divergent movement of plate is very prevalent in the oceanic plates.

The plates in the oceanic crust moves apart due to the up welling of aesthenosphere materials . These aesthenosphere materials(molten magma) are introduce to the ocean floor through the mid oceanic ridge . As this materials are introduced through cracks and fissures, the plates continue to drift apart. The molten magma later solidified to form a new crust closer to the oceanic ridge.  This is why sea floor bedrock closer to the ridge is younger as new rocks are formed here. But as one move farther away from the ridge the rocks become older. This phenomenon provide ample evidence that the seafloor is spreading. The older rocks found father away from the ridge proves the seafloor has been spreading given way for new rocks closer to the ridge.
