Question

1. The theory of plate tectonics is supported by _____.

2. The Eurasian an African plate or 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 _____

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

Answer 1

1) ridges and trenches

2) mid-Atlantic

3) Subduction Zone

4) Molten

5) Oceanic Trenches

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