Which statement is FLASE about the properties of Ridge Push & Slab Pull?
*
These forces are what move earths plates
Where the current sinks the plates are pulled down
Where the current rises, the plates are pushed apart
Where the current rises, the plates slide past each other.

Ridge Push: This force is associated with mid-ocean ridges where new oceanic crust is formed. The elevated topography at the ridge creates a gravitational force that pushes the plates away from the ridge.

Slab Pull: This force is associated with subduction zones where oceanic plates sink into the mantle. The sinking, or subducting, oceanic plate pulls the rest of the plate behind it due to gravity.

So, the correct statement is that where the current rises (mid-ocean ridge), the plates are pushed apart (Ridge Push), not that the plates slide past each other.
