Do ocean basins spread uniformly over the entire basin? Explain?

Question

Paleomagnetism and the ocean floor

Answer 1

When you come to me for a job interview in a few years, I will know beforehand that you were lazy in school. That will not be a plus for you.

I will have to ask you questions to determine what you learned after school. I will know that by copying answers from others, you didn't learn much in school.

I hope you will soon realize that looking just for grades is not the same as looking for learning.

Please take this seriously.

Here is a link to a plate tectonics map of the world. Look in the ocean basins and you will see where the ocean spreading ridges are located. New ocean floor is created at the spreading ridges. You can see that these ridges are located in narrow bands--they are not spread out over the ocean floor. So, no, the ocean basins don't spread uniformly over the entire basin.
Note also--the position of the spreading ridges in various oceans. The Atlantic has a long spreading ridge right down the middle. The Pacific has spreading ridges only in the southeastern part of the ocean, and some short ridges right of the coast of northern North America.
Check out the three ridges off of India.

Answer 3

Nope they bunch up.

The pacific ocean bunches up on the west cost of North and South Americat. The Atlantic (to a smaller degree) bunches up on the west coast of Aftrica and Europe.

This is due too the fact that the earth is turning and the water resists the turn too a degree because of the effect of gravity on it from the moon and sun.
