Q22. The stripes represent new crust.Q23. The middle slit is the mid-ocean ridge, where new seafloor is created.Q24. The mid-ocean ridge is where new crust forms, pushing plates apart.Q25. New seafloor forms when magma rises from the mantle, cools, and solidifies.Q26. The side slits represent subduction zones where old crust is destroyed.Q27. No, the Earth's size is constant. While new crust is formed at ridges, old crust is destroyed at subduction zones.
