Not really but sea floor sediments thickness increase with increased distance from spreading centers which is good evidence. Other evidence such as magnetic reversals, temperature, dating methods provide the best evidence of seafloor spreading

How do rocks along the central valley of the mid-ocean ridge provide evidence of sea- floor spreading?

Rocks along the central valley of the mid-ocean ridge display symmetrical patterns of magnetic striping where new oceanic crust is formed. This occurs as magma is extruded along the ridge, creating a record of Earth's changing magnetic field over time. The alternating magnetic polarity of these rocks provides concrete evidence for sea-floor spreading and the movement of tectonic plates.

How were earthquake patterns used to provide evidence of seafloor spreading?

Earthquake patterns were used to provide evidence of seafloor spreading through the discovery of mid-ocean ridges. Scientists observed that earthquakes were concentrated along these ridges, indicating the presence of tectonic activity associated with the movement of tectonic plates. This supported the theory of seafloor spreading, where new oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges and pushes older crust away from the ridge.
