Many scientists rejected continental drift when it was first proposed because
the age of oceanic crust increases with distance from a mid-ocean ridge
Wegener could not explain how Earth's continents moved
scrape past each other
convection in the asthenosphere
divergent boundary
when an oceanic plate and another plate converge
younger than crust near a trench
sea-floor rock
Subduction occurs
the age of oceanic crust increases with distance from a mid-ocean ridge
Wegener could not explain how Earth's continents moved
scrape past each other
convection in the asthenosphere
divergent boundary
when an oceanic plate and another plate converge
younger than crust near a trench
sea-floor rock
Earth's magnetic reversals are recorded in
the age of oceanic crust increases with distance from a mid-ocean ridge
Wegener could not explain how Earth's continents moved
scrape past each other
convection in the asthenosphere
divergent boundary
when an oceanic plate and another plate converge

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

Oceanic crust at a mid-ocean ridge is
the age of oceanic crust increases with distance from a mid-ocean ridge
