Earth's surface is made up of a system of moving plates. The heavy black lines on the map mark the plate boundaries. The map also shows the approximate age of different parts of the ocean floor in millions of years (m. y.). Which statement is best
supported by the data in the map?
O The crust of the ocean floor is much older than the crust of the continents.
o The oldest parts of the ocean floor are usually found at the boundary
between two plates.
o The parts of the ocean floor that are closer to a plate boundary tend to be
younger than other parts of the ocean floor.
The ocean floor is warmest in the middle and cooler as you get closer to
the continents.
