Answer:

A, B, E

Explanation:

The magma rising through the cracks makes new younger rocks close to the crack as the magma follows out and hardens. This means that rocks farther away from the crack are older because they where formed when they where right next to the crack. They are father away meaning they got pushed back as time went on.

Mid ocean ridges are a result of the spreading not the cause.

Because they are in the middle of the ocean and they are moving constantly i dought the mid ocean ridges are creating continents.

Organisms with advantageous adaptations are more likely to survive and reproduce than organisms without the advantageous adaptat
expeople1 [14]

Natural selection refers to the phenomenon by which the species in a population possessing the tendency to get adapted in a condition enhance in numbers in comparison to those who exhibit fewer adaptation capacities over a number of generations.  

In other words, it can be stated as the non-random and differential development of distinct genotypes function to sustain favorable variant and to eradicate less favorable variants. Some of the conditions are required for the process of natural selection to take place.  

These are heredity, reproduction, variation in individual characters, and variation in the fitness of organisms among the members of the population. If the conditions are met, then the phenomenon of natural selection occurs by default.
