PLATE TECTONICS
SEAFLOOR SPREADING
MAKE A DIAGRAM TO IDENTIFY EVIDENCE
FOR SEAFLOOR SPREADING. USE ARROWS
TO SHOW THE DIRECTION OF SPREADING,
AND INDICATE WHERE OLDER ROCK AND
NEWER ROCK OCCUR.
* I FOUND THIS INFORMATION ON
______________.
PLATE TECTONICS
SEAFLOOR SPREADING
MODEL THE POLARITY OF EARTH’S
MAGNETIC FIELD TODAY.
• DRAW A SPHERE TO REPRESENT EARTH.
• LABEL THE NORTH POLE AND SOUTH POLE.
• DRAW ARROWS INDICATING THE DIRECTION
IN WHICH MAGNETIC LINES OF FORCE ENTER
AND LEAVE EARTH.
• I FOUND THIS INFORMATION ON

SEAFLOOR SPEADING
SUMMARIZE HOW REVERSALS IN THE DIRECTION OF
EARTH’S MAGNETIC FIELD HAVE PROVIDED EVIDENCE
OF SEALFLOOR SPREADING.
AT TIMES, THE _______________ THAT PASS
THROUGH EARTH HAVE _______________. __________
OF EARTH’S MAGNETIC FIELD ARE RECORDED IN
____________ THAT FORMS ALONG __________.
SCIENTISTS CAN DETECT ___________ THAT ARE

SUMMARIZE
HOW SOUND WAVES ARE USED TO MAP THE SEAFLOOR.
* I FOUND THIS INFORMATION ON PAGE________.
MODEL
THE PROCESS OF SEAFLOOR SPREADING BY DRAWING A
CROSS SECTION OF A MID- OCEAN RIDGE AND THE
MAGMA BELOW IT. USE ARROWS TO INDICATE THE
DIRECTION OF MOTION.
