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 happens when fire grows?
It spreads and causes a bigger fire somewhere else or just causes more damage to where the fire was originally at.
The Nile has its source in the small African country of Burundi. it then flows through lake Victoria and into a series of spectacular gorges before it spreads out in?
The part where a river spreads out, near the ocean, is called a "delta".The part where a river spreads out, near the ocean, is called a "delta".The part where a river spreads out, near the ocean, is called a "delta".The part where a river spreads out, near the ocean, is called a "delta".
What is the theory that occurs when magma is pushed upward and flows through the openings in the ocean floor?
this usually happens when the sea floor spreads open.
What part of the ocean spreads when old crust melts?
mid-ocean ridge
Is fire under the ocean?
Fire requires oxygen. There is no free oxygen in the ocean. Therefore there can be no fire at the bottom of the ocean.
What happens during a housefire?
There are a lot of angles on this question. From a fire science prospective the fire starts out slow and grows if there is enough air and things to burn. The fire continues to grow and give off heat. The heat gathers at the ceiling level and spreads and soon the entire room will burst into flame because of the heat. The fire then spreads to other parts of the house. IF there is not enough air, the fire will die down before it gets very big but the temperature in the room remains high. When air is allowed in, the fire suddenly erupts in a flash explosion.
What happens as the ocean crust spreads?
As ocean crust spreads, new oceanic lithosphere is formed at mid-ocean ridges through volcanic activity, where magma rises and solidifies. This process pushes tectonic plates apart, leading to the creation of new seafloor and contributing to the expansion of ocean basins. Additionally, as the crust moves away from the ridge, it cools and becomes denser, eventually sinking into the mantle at subduction zones. This dynamic process plays a crucial role in the Earth's plate tectonics and geological activity.
What happens to the ocean crust as is spreads from the mid-ocean ridge?
As the volcanic material moves away from the Mid Ocean Ridge, it cools (which makes it denser); it forms the large 'Giants Causeway" type of polygon rock forms; once it has passed through the Curie point, it preserves a record of the magnetic field as is was when the rock cools.
What happens to a gas when it diffuses?
It spreads evenly throughout its containers/surroundings.
When was Pacific Ocean Fire created?
Pacific Ocean Fire was created in 2001.
As the ocean floor spreads other parts plunge into the mantle What is this process called?
subduction
