Rocks in the seafloor are moving one place to another
The ages of the rocks become older the farther the way they are from the ridges. The closer they are the younger it is. This leaves evidence to the seafloor spreading theory.
The seafloor rocks vary in different places. Rock samples near ocean ridges are younger than rocks at deep sea trenches
at the mid-ocean ridge, molten material rises up from the mantel and spreads out, pushing the older rocks to both sides of the ridge.
because that there are younger rocks found at ocean ridges than the ones found near deep-sea trenches
The magnetic properties of rocks along the mid-oceanic ridges change alignment in a symmetrical manner.

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.

Convergence supports the theory of seafloor spreading. Samples of the deep ocean floor are evidence of seafloor spreading because the basaltic oceanic crust and overlapping sediment become younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached. Also, the rock that makes up the floor of the ocean is younger than the continents.
