Answer 1

The correct response that provides evidence for the existence of Earth's magnetic field is:

**Mid-ocean ridges having iron that is turned in different directions.**

This phenomenon is related to the process of seafloor spreading and the alignment of magnetic minerals in magma as it cools and solidifies, which preserves a record of Earth's magnetic field over geological time.
