Answer 2

This question is about seafloor spreading, magnetism, and ocean rocks and sediments. The first part of the question requires filling in the blanks with the appropriate terms. The second part of the question is a matching exercise where items in Column A need to be matched with the corresponding items in Column B. 1. For the fill-in-the-blank section: - (17) The term that fits here is "magnetic field". Earth's magnetic field has changed over time. - (18) A field with the same orientation as today's field is said to have "normal polarity". - (19) A field that is opposite to the present field has "reversed polarity". - (20) Magnetometers have been used to measure the ocean floor's magnetic field. Magnetic data of the ocean floor has been used to generate "magnetic" maps. - (21) The ocean floor is "younger" near ocean ridges. - (22) The ocean floor is "older" near deep-sea trenches.2. For the matching section: - (23) The device that can detect small changes in magnetic fields is a "magnetometer" (e). - (24) Minerals containing iron act like small compass needles and record the orientation of Earth's magnetic field at the time of their formation (b). - (25) The "geomagnetic time scale" was constructed from data gathered from continental basalt flows (c). - (26) An "isochron" line connects points on a map that have the same age (a). - (27) Each cycle of spreading and magma intrusion along an ocean ridge results in the formation of "new ocean crust" (d).This explanation covers the reasoning behind each answer, providing a clear understanding of how the terms and concepts relate to the questions asked.
