The earth maintains a magnetic field due to the metals that make up its core. Thus, all rocks are influenced by this magnetic field and "face" the direction the field is "facing". Every few hundred million years the poles switch, and with it the magnetic field. Similarly, all rocks "face" the new direction. Magnetic strips are indicators of when the magnetic field of the Earth changed.

Does continental drift show that the ocean floor is always stable?
Well, it depends. If you mean from the iceage movie, then no, that movie was ustable because it was innacurate and very fake. But if you mean by earth, I think that you are trying to get answers for your homework, yes? Well, the answer is mabye
What causes the zebra pattern on the ocean floor?
By "zebra striped pattern" I presume you mean the wave like fashion the sand is formed into in which light hits the crest but doesn't in the crevice? This is due to, from my understanding, the ebb and flow of the water. The sand almost mimics the waves above it.
What does it mean when it says you can walk on the ocean floor along areas of the bay?
Walking on the ocean floor along areas of the bay typically refers to low tide conditions where the water level is shallow enough to allow you to walk on the exposed seabed. This can give you a unique opportunity to explore marine life and geological features that are usually underwater. It's important to be cautious and aware of tide timings to avoid getting stranded or caught by rising waters.

What does ocean sea floor mean?
The ocean sea floor refers to the bottom surface of the ocean, which can range from continental shelves to deep ocean basins. It is made up of a variety of features such as abyssal plains, trenches, seamounts, and mid-ocean ridges, and plays a crucial role in oceanic processes and ecosystems.
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.

What would happen to Earth if ocean floor were created at divergent boundaries at a faster rate than it is destroyed at convergent boundaries?
Basically cataclysm. Because of the rapid changes in the earths level, im guessing you mean. Would mean that there would be too much ocean floor, and the cause would be if you meant the Earth would happen, well not much just we would lose a lot of water from the ocean.
