The ages of the rocks become older the farther the way they are from the ridges. The closer they are the younger it is. This leaves evidence to the seafloor spreading theory.
Rocks in the seafloor are moving one place to another
seafloor spreading
Henry H. hess
Convergence supports the theory of seafloor spreading. Samples of the deep ocean floor are evidence of seafloor spreading because the basaltic oceanic crust and overlapping sediment become younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached. Also, the rock that makes up the floor of the ocean is younger than the continents.

They proved that the seafloor was spreading.
A diagram that shows how seafloor spreading works.
Its mostly a basaltic formation, caused as a result of ferromagnetic magmatic emergence at zones of seafloor spreading during oceanic-oceanic divergence.
Seafloor spreading is triggered by a rift in a continental land mass.
Gravity in the oceanic crust is responsible for seafloor spreading.
Seafloor Spreading
Seafloor Spreading helped move the Continents to their current location.
When seafloor spreading occurs, it pushes the underground magma up though the new crust, creating a sort of volcano out of the new crust. Magma is a very important part in seafloor spreading. :]
