Early studies of the ocean floor helped to develop the theory of plate tectonics because they showed that
younger than crust near a trench
sea-floor rock
continental-continental collision
Wegener could not explain how Earth's continents moved
convection in the asthenosphere
scrape past each other
the age of oceanic crust increases with distance from a mid-ocean ridge
when an oceanic plate and another plate converge
Subduction occurs

The Alps are forming as a result of the European and African plates pushing against each other. This is an example of

Many scientists rejected continental drift when it was first proposed because
