In the centres of many oceans, there are mid-ocean ❌. At these places, the ❌ plates are moving apart. Molten material, known as ❌ from inside the Earth oozes out and solidifies. This movement of the mantle is referred to as ❌ due to heating by the core of the Earth. This process is called seafloor ❌. The typical speed of seafloor spreading is ❌: about 10 cm per year. When the magma oozing out of mid-ocean ridges solidifies into rock, the rock records the ❌ of the Earth’s magnetic field. The Earth’s magnetic field changes with time, and sometimes even ❌ its direction. These changes are ❌ in the rocks. The same ❌ are seen on both sides of the mid-ocean ridges.
