Answer:
Oceanic crust is created as magma rises to fill the gap between diverging tectonic plates and is consumed in subduction zones. It is geologically young, with a mean age of 60 Ma, and is thin, averaging 6.5 km in thickness. Oceanic crust consists almost exclusively of extrusive basalt and its intrusive equivalents.
Your answer should be B southwest (speaking how I don't have a map) but north Carolina is located to the east of North East of Georgia so what's the opposite? The opposite is southwest.

Explanation:
Geodesy, the science of measuring the Earth's shape and positions on it, allows the measurement of plate motion directly using GPS, the Global Positioning System. This network of satellites is more stable than the Earth's surface, so when a whole continent moves somewhere at a few centimeters per year, GPS can tell.
GPS uses a system of satellites to triangulate the position of a receiver anywhere on Earth. By using a network of receivers near plate boundaries, scientists can very accurately determine how the plates behave
