How did scientists discover that rocks get older from the mid ocean ridge?
They discovered a pattern of reverse and normal polarity in the rock bodies of the ocean floor that indicated that oceanic crust was constantly being formed over time. Polarity shifts in the Earth had already been noted in continental crustal rock. With the advent of radiometric dating, core samples were taken and dated, confirming that the youngest rock is found at the ridge and rock age advances with distance from the ridge.
According to the pattern of half-cell potentials what determines the polarity of a cell?
According to the pattern of half-cell potentials, what seems to determine the polarity of a cell?
Does water have a polarity pattern consistent with the electro-negativity values of O and H?
Yes, it is correct.
How do scientists determine the living relatives of a fossil?
They look for patterns in the morphology of the organisms. This science of pattern recognition between species is called phylogeny.
When studying seismic records from all over the globe what did scientists find out about the pattern of earthquakes?
Many earthquakes are concentrated in narrow zones along plate boundaries.
Scientists used the pattern of alternating normal and reversed polarity in rocks to create the geomagnetic?
time scale
What is the narrative pattern of the novel My Ántonia?
The pattern is generally chronological.

What did scientist discover when they arranged elements in order of increasing atomic mass?
they discovers a repeating pattern of properties
What is the geomagnetic reversal time scale?
The geomagnetic reversal time scale has patterns of polarity. It is the pattern of alternating and reserved polarity in rocks.
Which transitional word or phrase is most common in the chronological organizational pattern?
Next,
A sentence with the word chronological?
events that happen in chronological order. Chronological order means arranged by time it occurred, so events arranged into chronological order happened in order, as if on a timeline. example: john is born-john is married-john has a son-john dies.
The pattern of speech organization used in a speech topic that progresses in order of time is?
chronological
What organizational pattern should you use to describe a series of event which happened in order?
Chronological
Does water have a polarity pattern consistent with the electro-negativity values of O and H?
Yes, it is correct.
What is the pattern of magnetic polarity reversals?
In a geomagnetic reversal, the south and north magnetic poles flip locations. A magnetic pole reversal takes place every 450,000 years on average, but this is not regular. We are way overdue since the last reversal was 780,000 years ago. There is a pattern in the magnetic polarity of basaltic rocks on opposite sides of a mid-ocean ridge. Basalt contains tiny magnetic crystals that point to the location of the north magnetic pole at the time the lava cools. The rocks at the ridge have positive polarity, but on either side of the ridge the polarity is negative, indicating that those lavas cooled when the magnetic field was opposite of what it is today. On either side of the basalt with negative polarity are more rocks with positive polarity. This pattern continues on both sides of the mid-ocean ridge across the ocean basin. The pattern of magnetic polarity is one of the main lines of evidence for seafloor spreading, which is the mechanism for plate tectonics.
