woahhhh

Differentiate Continental Drift and Seafloor Spreading.
Seafloor spreading = process where new oceanic crust is made under the sea.
Continental Drift theory, = were once a single landmass break apart and move to their present locations. 😀😀
MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE
Most volcanos are found near the edge of a continent around the globe.
FALSE!!!!! 🤣 🤣
The edge of a continent -> narrow belts
