Plz help! Which evidence originally supported Hess’s idea of seafloor spreading in 1968?

A) Younger rocks are closer to mid-ocean ridges.
B) The destruction of crust occurs at deep-sea trenches.
C) Oceanic rocks are pillow-shaped when formed.
D) Rocks across the ocean floor have alternating magnetic stripes.

The evidence that originally supported Hess's idea of seafloor spreading was that the younger rocks are closer to mid-ocean ridges.

Explanation:

A is correct because Hess noticed that the rocks that are closer to the mid-ocean ridges are younger, and as their distance from the mid-ocean ridge increased, their age increased as well, thus giving him a clue that the seafloor is spreading.

B is not correct because Hess never managed to examine the deep-sea trenches.

C is not correct because Hess didn't have the means to be that close (in water) to a mid-ocean ridge where the new crust is formed so that he can witness it, and this was mainly due to the lack of proper equipment.

D is not correct because magnetic stripes indicate the positions of the poles throughout the geological past.

would the answer be physical geography and cultural geography i haven't studied geography but i searched it online and those are my answers.

hope this .

plz mark me as brainliest answer: d
