How do the symmetrical age patterns of oceanic crust on either side of mid-ocean ridge support the theory of plate tectonics?

The patterns demonstrate that the oceanic crust is moving apart at a divergent plate boundary. How do the symmetrical age patterns of oceanic crust on either side of a mid-ocean ridge support the theory of plate tectonics? ... Cooler, denser oceanic lithosphere sinks at subduction zones.

Explanation:

events in order:

1.       vishnu schist

2. zoroaster granite

3. bass limestone

4. hakatar   shale

5. igneous intrusion

6. shinumo quartzite

7. dox sandstone

8. tapeats limestone

9. bright angel shale

10. muav limestone

11. temple butte limestone

12. redwall limestone  

nonconformity

answer: the unkar group shows angular unconformity because the layers are turned at angle.

unconformity

answer: specifically the angular unconformity occurs between the cambrian and precambrian rocks. the dox sandstone, shinumo quartzite, hakatar shale, and bass limestone have been filled. an angular unconformity occurs between the cambrian and precambrian rocks. the dox sandstone, shinumo quartzite, hakatar shale, and bass limestone have been filled.

disconformity

answer: the disconformities aremarked irregular lines between the sedimentaryrocks layers.
