How do strip of magnetized rock on the ocean floor provide evidence of sea-floor spreading?
Strips of ocean-floor basalt record the polarity of earth's magnetic field at the time the rock formed. These strips form a pattern that is the same on both sides of the mid-ocean ridge. the pattern shows that ocean floor forms along mid-ocean ridges and then moves away from the ridge.

Long raised strips of land called ridges run parallel to the coast?
These ridges are typically formed by the deposition of sediment by longshore drift or wave action. They can provide protection to the coastline by acting as a barrier against storm surges and erosion. Vegetation such as dune grasses often grows on these ridges, helping to stabilize them.
Linear magnetic patterns associated with mid-oceanic ridges are configured as what?
Linear, magnetic patterns associated with mid-ocean ridges are configured as normal and reversed magnetized strips roughly parallel to the ridge. A very long lived magma source located deep in the mantle is called a hot spot.
What is the sequence of rock strips at the oceanic ridges called?
Paleomagnetism :)
How are magnetic patterns in sea floor rock evidence of seafloor spreading?
Magnetic alignment of rocks, in alternating strips that run parallel to ridges, indicates reversals in Earth's magnetic field and provides further evidence of seafloor spreading.
Why are magnetic strips on the sea floor are parallel to the mid ocean ridge?
Yes, but it can be influenced by volcanoes and earthquakes

What are 2 examples of dicotyledons?
Most plants around us are dicotyledons, except for plants that have parallel strips in their leaves, like grasses, palms, or lilies - those are monocotyledons.

What is parallel turning on lathe machine?
Parallel strips, which are hardened and ground steel pieces sold in matching pairs, are used in a vice or bolted to the machine table to support and accurately set jobs. Their purpose is to provide clearance so drilling and tapping operations can be done without cutting into the machine table.

Which land form is a long narrow island parallel to the coast?
The landform you are referring to is called a barrier island. These islands are long, narrow strips of sand that are parallel to the coast and separated from the mainland by a lagoon or marsh. They often provide protection to the mainland from the ocean and can be found in coastal areas around the world.
