The correct answer is:

Rocks closer to the ridge are newer.

The Glomar Challenger was a drilling ship built in 1968 to gather samples from the ocean floor. The study found that the more distant away from a ridge the samples were obtained, the older the rocks were. Therefore, the youngest rocks were always in the closer to the ridges. This was proof of the sea-floor spreading that had previously taken place.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

B Buffalo had helped fertilize the prairie grasses.

Explanation:

To understand this answer we need to analyze the context. First of all the Dust Bowl is the name given to identify the drought in a certain region called the dust bowl. It was composed of regions from Colorado, Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. And it happened because of the overexploitation of the environment. The farmers changed the ecosystem by transforming the majority of the land in the zone into agricultural land. Also, they killed the animals in the zone. Including buffalos, which they hunted until they were seen in small groups. Even though these animals helped the ecosystem to be balanced.
