Answer: magnetic stripes

Explanation: They show when Earth's poles reversed. They show how the density of the seafloor has changed. They reveal a matching pattern on either side of the ridge. They reveal differences in the mineral composition of newly created rock.

Evidence of seafloor spreading are

  • Molten material
  • Magnetic stripes
  • Drilled core samples

Explanation:

The convection of mantle is the reason for the seafloor spreading. Due to this process, mantle is brought upwards to the lithosphere. As the tectonic plates separate, the crust is made more plastic and less dense by the heat of the mantle and eventually cracks occur in crusts and the hot magma rises up to fill these gaps.

The mid ocean ridges' magnetism also acts as a supporting evidence. Basalt, the surface material of the new crust is magnetic in nature. With the aid of magnetometers, it was established that the ocean floor's magnetism was divided into matching stripes on both sides of the ridges.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

b. stratigraphically alternating sequences of sandstones, conglomerates, and shales.

Explanation:

It is unlikely that one would find igneous rocks such as basalt and granite in fluvial environments. Coal is also not usually found in fluvial environments. Limestone prefers shallow and calm waters so would not be moved by water normally. This therefore invalidates options a, c, d, e and f.

For the hypothesis to be true, one would need to find conglomerates as these contain large clasts and are present in fluvial environments. Alternating sequences involving conglomerates and sandstones would indeed show that that some floods were able to carry large clasts.
