Answer: Several types of evidence supported Hess's theory of sea-floor spreading: eruptions of molten material, magnetic stripes in the rock of the ocean floor, and the ages of the rocks themselves. This evidence led scientists to look again at Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift.

Answer:
If four samples have the same volume, the sample with the highest mass will have the highest density, i.e. sample Z.
Explanation:
The density expresses the amount of mass that occupies a given volume, and knowing the mass and volume of a solid, the density can be determined by the formula:
<em> ρ = m/V
</em>
From this formula it can be determined that <u>density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume</u>.
Of the four samples, the highest mass is in the sample Z (312), so this sample has the highest density.
The process of circular motion in the Earth's mantle that causes the plates of the lithosphere to move is called convection.
The answer is B. convection

Answer:
D. At a rift valley the crust splits allowing basaltic magma to flow out without the force of a volcanos.
Explanation:
A. is a an illustration of a mid Atlantic ridge. Underseas volcanos form along the mid Atlantic and other Mid Ocean ridges. Some like in Iceland reach the surface.
B. Is an illustration of a hot spot volcano. These types of volcanos have formed the Hawaii islands. The island of Hawaii has an active volcano due to the action of a hot spot.
C. Is an illustration of a subduction zone. The heat and pressure that results from the ocean plate being pushed and pulled under a continental plate results in volcanos. Mt. St Helens is an example of volcano that results from a subduction zone.
D. is the correct answer, In a rift valley the magma can flow out through the break in the crust without forming a volcano. Western Oregon has vast lava beds of basaltic lava. There are no volcanos that were the source of these horizontal layers of lava.
