Identify how magnetic symmetry can be used as evidence of sea-floor spreading?

On each side of the mid-ocean ridge is a mirror of the striped pattern on the other side. When drawn, these patterns show alternating bands of normal and reverse polarity that match the geomagnetic reversal time scale, scientists can assign ages to the sea-floor rocks. The youngest rocks were at the center, and the older rocks father away. The ages of the sea floor rocks are symmetrical. The only place on the ocean-floor where new rocks are formed are at the rift in mid-ocean ridge. hope this helps :)


What are rocks in the sea called?

Rocks in the sea are typically referred to as sea rocks or underwater rocks. They can also be called submerged rocks or marine rocks.


What rocks are formed from broken rocks?

Rocks formed from broken rocks are known as sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments, which can include fragments of other rocks, minerals, and organic material. Common examples of sedimentary rocks formed from broken rocks include sandstone, conglomerate, and shale.


Name the three types of rocks?

Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks are the three main types of rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling of molten rock, sedimentary rocks from the accumulation of sediment, and metamorphic rocks from the transformation of existing rocks under heat and pressure.


Can metamorphic rocks form form igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?

Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks through the process of heat and pressure, but they are more commonly associated with forming from existing metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks can indirectly contribute to the formation of metamorphic rocks by heating up and altering surrounding rocks, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.

Identify how magnetic symmetry can be used as evidence of sea floor spreading?

As the sea floor spreads the magnetic orientation in the rocks as they cooled is preserved. As the earth's magnetic field changes then a distinct pattern is imprinted in the rocks. If sea floor spreading is true then this unique pattern should be the same on both sides from the spreading point. Measurements of sea bottom rocks verify this symmetry is true. :)
