question 3
what pattern do you see between location of crust and the age of crust?
crust far from the ridges is younger
crust by the mid - ocean ridges is older
crust by the mid - ocean ridges is younger
Brief Explanations
Mid - ocean ridges are areas where new crust is formed. As the crust is formed at the ridges, it spreads outwards. So, the crust near the mid - ocean ridges is newly formed (younger), and as you move away from the ridges, the crust gets older.
