1.) The theory of plate tectonics is supported by _______.
2.) The Eurasian and African plate are pushed away from the North and South American Plates at the _______.
3.) _______ is where rocks are carried back into the mantle of the earth.
4.) _______ iron can be magnetized by the magnetism of the earth.
5.) Subduction of the ocean floor occurs in _______.

Respond to the following based on your reading.
6.) Why have rocks older than 200 million years never been found in the oceans? Explain how the movement of tectonic plates is responsible for this recycling of the ocean floor.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1. ridges and trenches (either answer is acceptable)

2. mid-atlanitc

3. subduction zone

4. molten

5. oceanic trenches

Explanation:

6. rocks in the ocean eventually get subducted back into earths mantle due to slab pull. new rocks form at mid-ocean ridges as ridge forces two plates to diverge.

this is CORRECT just did this. for penn foster

please make me the brainlist

Answer:ridges or trenches (Either answer is acceptable)

Mid-Atlantic ridge

subduction zone

molten

oceanic trenches

Rocks in the ocean eventually get subducted back into Earth's mantle due to slab pull. New rocks form at mid-ocean ridges as ridge push forces two plates to diverge.
