Answer:

B. They each vary in size and temperature.

Explanation:

Earth's layers vary vastly in terms of temperature, the core being the hottest, and the crust being the coolest. This is the result of the immense pressure, literally the weight of the world, that is forced towards Earth's core by gravity.

The size of these layers varies greatly as well. The crust, in comparison to all other layers, is extremely thin, making up only around 15% of Earth, while the mantle makes up around 84% for comparison.

I hope this helps!

Which observation about the Mid-Atlantic Ridge region provides the best evidence that the seafloor has been spreading for millio
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

D. Seafloor bedrock is younger near the ridge and older farther away.

Explanation:

In a divergence boundary oceanic plates or continental plates move apart. The plates moves apart causing an uprising of molten magma to form a new crust. The divergent movement of plate is very prevalent in the oceanic plates.

The plates in the oceanic crust moves apart due to the up welling of aesthenosphere materials . These aesthenosphere materials(molten magma) are introduce to the ocean floor through the mid oceanic ridge . As this materials are introduced through cracks and fissures, the plates continue to drift apart. The molten magma later solidified to form a new crust closer to the oceanic ridge.  This is why sea floor bedrock closer to the ridge is younger as new rocks are formed here. But as one move farther away from the ridge the rocks become older. This phenomenon provide ample evidence that the seafloor is spreading. The older rocks found father away from the ridge proves the seafloor has been spreading given way for new rocks closer to the ridge.
