Why is the youngest rock found near mid-ocean ridges?

Biology
1 answer:
Svetlanka [38]3 years ago
4 0
The youngest rock is found near mid-ocean ridges since a new rock is formed near the mid-oceanic ridge as oceanic plates diverge or separate from each other. Hot rocks rising from the asthenosphere melt from decompression as they rise, filling the fault and forming new basaltic oceanic <span>crust. As new crust is added, older crust is pushed away. Hope this answer helps.</span>

Why is the sunset red or orange?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

According to the science magazine Scientific American, the sunset is reddish because, when the sun is setting, the light that reaches you has had to go through lots more atmosphere than when the sun is overhead, hence the only colour light that is not scattered away is the long wavelength light, the red.
