Sea-floor spreading ovcurs at divergent boundaries which statement best identifies the geologic process taking place at the point where sea floor spreading occurs
Changes in the amount of sea ice can disrupt normal ocean circulation, thereby leading to changes in global climate. Even a small increase in temperature can lead to greater warming over time, making the polar regions the most sensitive areas to climate change on Earth
The tectonic plates move and shift due to Mantle convection
Mantle convection is caused by the magma in the mantle of the earth constantly being cooled near the crust and heated the closer it gets to the core and like normal convection the cool magma sinks towards the crust and the hot magma rises to the crust. this happens in a circular motion causing the crust to shift with the magma
