Question

which statement describes the relationship between seafloor spreading and continental drift?
as the seafloor spreading occurs, the continents do not move.
as the continents move, they pull the seafloor with them.
as the continents move, they create new seafloor at the coast.
as the seafloor spreading occurs, the continents move.

Explanation:

Seafloor spreading is the process at mid - ocean ridges where new oceanic crust is formed. As new crust is created and pushes outward, it causes the tectonic plates to move, which in turn causes the continents (which are part of these plates) to move.

Answer:

As the seafloor spreading occurs, the continents move.
