- 32. Which of the following statements are TRUE? The seafloor is flat or bowl-shaped and the deepest portion is in the middle. The seafloor is the same age as the continents. The entire seafloor is the same age. The Earth is expanding; seafloor is created but never destroyed. Continents drift through the ocean and oceanic currents are responsible for

The seafloor is the same age as the continents. The entire seafloor is the same age. The Earth is expanding; seafloor is created but never destroyed. Continents drift through the ocean and

- 35. SEAFLOOR SPREADING DEMONSTRATION ACTIVITY After the activity, try answering the following questions: 1. How sea floor spreading happens? 2. How does the movement of the seafloor affects the continents? 3. Can seafloor spreading help prove continental drift theory? https://youtu.be/V0h8v2w3LGU?list=TLPQMzAwNDIwMjAzbEu4EGHGgA https://youtu.be/5eka88IOJ-I?list=TLPQMzAwNDIwMjAzbEu4EGHGgA
- 36. HARRY HESS THE THEORY OF SEAFLOOR SPREADING In the 1960’s Harry Hess, an American Geophysicist theorized that the seafloor is a hundred million years younger than the continents. He suggested that not only were the continents moving but the seafloor was also moving. He theorized that

- 38. Observations/Evidences that lead to the idea of SEAFLOOR SPREADING A. Distribution of seafloor topographic features – distribution of mid-ocean ridges and depth of the seafloor B. Sediment thickness – fine layer of sediment covering much of the seafloor becomes progressively thicker away from mid-ocean ridge axis; seafloor sediment not as thick as previously thought C. Composition of oceanic crust – consists primarily of basalt D. High heat flow along mid-ocean ridge axes – led scientists to speculate that magma is rising into the crust just below the mid-ocean ridge axis E. Distribution of submarine earthquakes – earthquakes do not occur randomly but define distinct belts (earthquake belts follow trenches, mid-oceanic ridges, transform faults).
- 39. HOW DO SEAFLOOR SPREADS? Molten material or magma from the Earth's mantle rises up because of mantle convection at ocean ridges, causing volcanic and seismic activity,
