Samples from the seafloor around the mid-atlantic ridge and the east pacific rise show that both areas have been creating new material in the last five million years. samples from the east pacific rise show the five million year old seafloor is three times as wide as similarly aged material from the mid-atlantic ridge. what does this say about the rate of seafloor growth in the east pacific

The seafloor at the Mid-Atlantic is growing more slowly.

The mid Atlantic ridge is the place where the plates diverge and is the zone of the rising magma or the molten rocks. The research collected the samples from the seafloor that shows us the five million years old seafloor and are several times wider as comaped to the eastern pacific,

This states that these place had similar history and even show the same type of evolution. As mid-Atlantic is new and growing and easterner pacific is shrinking at a faster rate.
