Which of these is the best evidence of seafloor spreading-ocean ridges-mid-oceanic mountains-volcanic islands-ocean trenches?
Ocean ridges is somewhat vague. Mid-ocean mountains are more precisely called mid-ocean ridges, so it seems like someone is trying to trip you up. The best evidence of seafloor spreading among the choices would be mid-ocean mountains. They are the buoyant, hot, new crust that is formed at the divergent plates of the world's oceans.

Which observation about the mid atlantic ridge region probides the best evidence that the seafloor has been spreading for millions of years?
The fact that there is a series of magnetic 'stripes' on either side of the ridge. They show that the earth's magnetic field has reversed several times during the formation of the rocks, and this only happened about every 5 million years. (There is some evidence that this is speeding up).
What best describes the geologic event taking place in the above illustration?
Seafloor spreading
Is the analysis of seafoor sediments evidence of sea-floor spreading?
Not really but sea floor sediments thickness increase with increased distance from spreading centers which is good evidence. Other evidence such as magnetic reversals, temperature, dating methods provide the best evidence of seafloor spreading
What term best describes the geologic event taking place in the above illustration?
Seafloor spreading

What best describes Earth's north magnetic pole?
Your expression, 'earth's north magnetic pole' is, at best, confusing. Are you referring to 'Magnetic North', which is a location and not the polarity of that location? Or are you referring to the magnetic polarity of this location, which is a south pole?If the former, then a compass indicates the direction of Magnetic North. If the latter, then earth's north magnetic pole is located at Magnetic South. In other words, a compass needle points to Magnetic North because it is attracted by its south magnetic polarity.Just to expand somewhat on this answer... 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are so-named to differentiate their locations from 'True North' and 'True South'. In other words, 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are locationsand not magnetic polarities. In fact, the magnetic polarity of True North is a south pole, and the magnetic polarity of True South is a north pole. I would also argue that the terms 'Magnetic North (or South) Pole' is confusing, because the location is not really a 'pole' in either the geographic or magnetic sense. By calling Magnetic North, a 'pole' causes confusion, making some students confuse their location ('Magnetic North') with their polarity ('south')!Apex answer: Wandering
