The importance of seafloor spreading to the theory of plate tectonics is captured by the response: "Where new crust is created as plates move and pull apart."
Seafloor spreading provides evidence for the movement of tectonic plates and explains how new oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges as magma rises to the surface, leading to the divergence of plates. This process is fundamental to understanding the dynamic nature of Earth's lithosphere.
