What else can I help you with?
The ocean floor is hard to get to Deep-sea organisms have been difficult to study. How do I combine these two sentences to make a correct one sentence?
Deep-sea organisms have been difficult to study because the ocean floor is hard to get to.
How do ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches support the theory of sea floor spreading?
Ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches support the theory of sea floor spreading through the process of plate tectonics. At ocean ridges, new oceanic crust is formed as magma rises and solidifies, pushing the existing crust apart. Deep-sea trenches are areas where old oceanic crust is being subducted back into the mantle, completing the cycle of sea floor spreading. This continuous movement of crust at ridges and trenches provides evidence for the theory of sea floor spreading and the movement of tectonic plates.
Is the sea floor near the mid ocean ridge young?
Yes, the sea floor near the mid-ocean ridge is young. As magma rises along the ridge, it solidifies to form new crust, creating a continuous process of crust formation and pushing older crust away from the ridge. This results in the oldest sea floor being farthest from the mid-ocean ridges.
Was the theory of sea floor spreading proved?
Yes, the theory of sea floor spreading was confirmed through the discovery of mid-ocean ridges, magnetic striping patterns on the ocean floor, and the study of ages of oceanic crust. This evidence supported the idea that new crust is continually created at mid-ocean ridges and spreads away from them.
Sea mountains are volcanic mountains located on the ocean floor?
Not exactly. Sea mountains are underwater topographic features that rise above the ocean floor but are not necessarily volcanic in origin. They can be formed through various geological processes such as tectonic activity or erosion.
What is a good sentence for sea floor spreading?
Sea floor spreading mean the process by which molten material adds new oceanic crust to the ocean floor
What happens to the old ocean floor as the sea floor spreads?
As the sea floor spreads, the old ocean floor gets pushed out, which makes the plates move.
What is the ocean bottom?
The sea floor, or sea bed.
Are there any mountains on the ocean floor on the ocean floor?
Derr! there called sea mount's.
Where does sea floor spread?
Sea floor spreading occurs at mid-ocean ridges.
How does new ocean floor form?
Sea Floor Spreading!
What is sea floor spreeding?
a crack in the ocean floor appears.
What is a spreading center on the ocean floor?
sea floor-spreading..;)
How does the ocean floor and the center slit differ on the side slit?
By center slit I assume that you mean a mid ocean ridge which is a divergent boundary and the sea floor is very young there. Then be side slit I am assuming that you mean a trench which is a convergent boundary or subduction zone which would be the oldest part of the sea floor.
Where sea floor spreading occurs?
Sea floor spreading occurs at the mid ocean ridges.
What is the primary site for sea floor spreading?
Sea floor spreading occurs at mid-ocean ridges
What is another word for sea floor?
Bottom of the ocean
