What do magnetic anomalies provide evidence of?
seafloor spreading
How are magnetic patterns in sea floor rock evidence of seafloor spreading?
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.
What is the evidence of seafloor spreading?
Animal fossils have been found in many places in the ocean.
What is the modern theory supported by additional evidence such as satellite measurements of continental movement?
Seafloor Spreading.
What did the magnetic strips prove in seafloor spreading?
They proved that the seafloor was spreading.
What do magnetic anomalies provide evidence of?
seafloor spreading
Magnetic stripes on the seafloor are caused in part by?
symmetrical spreading of the ocean floor at mid-ocean ridges, where molten material rises to create new seafloor. As this material cools and solidifies, it records the Earth's magnetic field at the time, creating magnetic stripes on the seafloor. This phenomenon provides evidence for seafloor spreading and plate tectonics.
Magnetic striping is evidence of?
pole reversals seafloor spreading
How do the ages of the rocks on the seafloor support the theory of seafloor spreading?
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.

How did the seafloor drilling help scientist find evidence to support the seafloor-spreading hypothesis?
people here are stupid , really the answer is not hi
How did seafloor drilling scientists find evidence to support the seafloor-spreading hypothesis?
dumb question. don't want to write it all
What is the evidence of seafloor spreading?
Animal fossils have been found in many places in the ocean.
Is there evidence that seafloor-spreading?
Yes, there is evidence supporting seafloor spreading, including magnetic striping patterns on the ocean floor, the age progression of seafloor away from mid-ocean ridges, and the presence of hydrothermal vents along mid-ocean ridges that release magma from the Earth's mantle.
What evidence in rocks supports the theory 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.
How do the ages of the rocks on the ocean floor support the theory of seafloor spreading?
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.
How do the ages of rock on the ocean floor support the theory of seafloor spreading?
