Then magma rises in the middle, cools, hardens, and sinks forming a valley. Eventually being filled with ocean water, which then makes it turn into seafloor spreading. ]]> 2018-03-14 13:47:40 UTC https://padlet.com/molly_marshall/7lh1n0fgukpb/wish/241873182 molly_marshall https://padlet.com/molly_marshall/7lh1n0fgukpb/wish/241895048 2018-03-14 14:21:28 UTC https://padlet.com/molly_marshall/7lh1n0fgukpb/wish/241895048 molly_marshall https://padlet.com/molly_marshall/7lh1n0fgukpb/wish/241896730 Convection Currents pull two oceanic plates apart. Hot less dense magma rises in the middle, cools, and hardens, pushing the old seafloor out.
