A continental rift separated the Americas from Africa and Europe, and continued movement formed first a rift basin and then a narrow ocean basin that became the seafloor.

<h3>The process of seafloor formation</h3>

Seafloors are known to happen at the point where there are divergences in the plate boundary.

The formation happens due to the movement of the tectonic plates from each other.

Answer:

Plate Tectonic theory

Explanation:

Plate tectonics is based on continental drift,  and seafloor spreading the three pieces of evidence that support this are those given by Alfred Wagner

As the Jigsaw fit between continents that were one at some point in time.

As the polar wandering or the flight to poles i.e how continents are drifted way to poles by forces of wind.

Presence of the same flora and fauna and glacial valley formation that were once a part of the same continent of Pangea and Gondwana.

The hypothesis ultimately got replaced by seafloor spreading as the drawbacks of drift theory which would not give sufficient evidence for the spreading away of continents. Earth's tectonic forces and internal sources of energy i.e heat produced by radioactive decay was not emphasized and Alfred's continuous orogeny could not have been possible.

You will be asked to give examples of the 3 types of Isostatic Rebound, Sediment Deposition, or Erosion that has impacted the wa
VMariaS [17]
Isostatic rebound occurs when a load is imposed on or removed from the lithosphere. The surface tends to rise or sink as the lithosphere rises or sinks in the asthenosphere. Loads may consist of large lakes, oceans (on continental shelves during eustatic sea level rise), ice, sediment, thrust sheets, and volcanoes.

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.
