How does the theory of plate tectonics support the theory of seafloor spreading? A. When a tectonic plate meets the ocean floor, it submerges beneath it, increasing the total seafloor. B. When two tectonic plates move toward each other, they converge to create a new ocean. C. When a tectonic plate moves parallel to another plate, it creates a gap between the plates, which is filled by the ocean. D. When two tectonic plates move in opposite directions, it causes magma to rise, creating a new seafloor.
