It is false that the new oceanic crust is created at the mid-ocean ridges, then the Earth is getting bigger.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
Amid ocean ridge is a range of the mountain has been formed under the water and a crust is been developed at these ridges through out. Because of the plates moving away from each other, the crust is developed, the lithosphere becomes a little cool but this does not change the size of the earth, neither does it increase nor does it decrease.
This new crust is gradually pushed away from the ridge by more new crust, eventually traveling the across the plate. A process called seafloor spreading, then back into the Earth's interior at a subduction zone, where one tectonic plate dives beneath another.
