Problem 16–north is moving west, and Problem 16–south is moving east. Option B is correct
This is further explained below.
Generally, North move the west, while south moves east in Problem 16. In the North Atlantic, the MAR divides the Eurasian and North American plates, and in the South Atlantic, the South American and African plates. Plates continue to separate.
Along the crest, the Atlantic is spreading 2.5 cm every year. "Pillow lava" forms underwater. New ocean lithosphere develops at the ridge when the plates separate, expanding the ocean basin. "Sea floor spreading" happens at a pace of 2.5 cm every year (1 inch).
In conclusion, North America and Europe are diverging slowly. This mechanism shows that the ridge's basalt is younger than its crust.
