Question

9 multiple choice 1 point between which two plates would you find a ridge and seafloor spreading occurring? north american - african indian - arabian juan de fuca - north american pacific - philippine

Explanation:

• North American - African: These are two major tectonic plates. Mid - Atlantic Ridge lies between them. Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. The Mid - Atlantic Ridge is a classic example of a divergent boundary where new oceanic crust is formed as the plates move apart.
• Indian - Arabian: The boundary between the Indian and Arabian plates is a convergent boundary (subduction or collision in some parts), not a site of ridge and seafloor spreading.
• Juan de Fuca - North American: The boundary between the Juan de Fuca and North American plates is a convergent boundary (subduction of the Juan de Fuca plate beneath the North American plate), not a site of ridge and seafloor spreading.
• Pacific - Philippine: The boundary between the Pacific and Philippine plates is a convergent boundary (subduction in some regions), not a site of ridge and seafloor spreading.

Answer:

North American - African
