Explain the process by which new sea floor forms at mid-ocean ridges?
as it spread away from a mid-ocean ridge, the sea floor carries with it a record or magnetic reversals. i hope this answer would be correct :) also, when the magma rises through fractures in the sea floor at the mid-ocean ridge, the magma cools and forms new rocks. this new rock takes place of the old rock and the old rock gets pulled away.
Which 3 different ways can sedimentary rocks form?
Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension. This sediment often formed when weathering and erosion break down a rock into loose material in a source area. The material will then be transported from the source area to the area of deposition. The type of sediment that is transported to a place depends on the geology of the hinterland (the source area of the sediment). However, some sedimentary rocks, like evaporites, are composed of material that formed at the place of deposition. The nature of a sedimentary rock therefore not only depends on sediment supply, but also on the sedimentary depositional environment in which it formed.
Where does seafloor spreading take place?
