Answer 1

Pangaea , continental and oceanic convergent boundary, continental and ocean convergence, A transform boundary, An oceanic oceanic divergence, Alfred Wegener,

Step-by-step explanation:

There are younger rocks at the ocean ridges compared to rocks away from the ridges. Magnetic field reversals recorded in rocks showing matching Zebra patterns on both sides of ridges.

At or near plate boundaries.

Convergent boundaries.

Distribution of trenches and ridges worldwide.

Hot spots (mantle plumes)
