The correct response is:
Mid-ocean ridges having iron that is turned in different directions.
This evidence relates to the process of seafloor spreading and paleomagnetism, where the magnetic orientation of iron-rich minerals in molten rock cools and aligns with Earth's magnetic field. Changes in the orientation of these minerals over time provide evidence of Earth's magnetic field and its reversals.
