Explicação

## Step 1The first blank in the passage is about the changing orientation of Earth's magnetic field over time. The term that fits this context is "normal-polarity".## Step 2The second blank is about a field with the same orientation as today's field. This is referred to as "normal-polarity".## Step 3The third blank is about a field that is opposite to the present field. This is referred to as "reversed-polarity".## Step 4The fourth blank is about the type of maps generated using magnetic data of the ocean floor. This is referred to as "geomagnetic time scale" maps.## Step 5The fifth blank is about the temperature of the ocean floor near ocean ridges. This is referred to as "hotter".## Step 6The sixth blank is about the temperature of the ocean floor near deep-sea trenches. This is referred to as "colder".## Step 7The seventh question is about a device that can detect small changes in magnetic fields. The correct answer is "crust o meter".## Step 8The eighth question is about minerals that act like small needles and record the orientation of Earth's magnetic field at the time of their formation. The correct answer is "iron".## Step 9The ninth question is about a type of line that connects points on a map that have the same age. The is "isochron".
