From magnetic striping patterns, scientists can learn the following:
1. **The cause of magnetic pole reversals.**
2. **The direction plates are moving relative to each other.**
3. **The speed of one plate as it subducts below another plate.**
The other options related to the location of ancient faults, the year of the next magnetic reversal, and the exact location of the next earthquake along the California coast are not directly informed by magnetic striping patterns.
