Question 27 • *MHS - Earth Science - S1 - CR

Which is one piece of evidence of seafloor spreading?

Answer
A
fossil material
B
continent material
C
drilled core samples
D
ocean water samples

Explanation

Drilled core samples provide evidence because rocks from the ocean floor can be dated. They show that seafloor rocks are youngest near mid-ocean ridges and become older farther away, supporting the idea that new seafloor forms at ridges and spreads outward. The correct choice is drilled core samples.
