Answer :

I suppose the answer you want is that the "younger" rock is close to the Mid-Atlantic/Ocean Ridge? 

Answer: Rocks close to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are younger

Explanation:

The mid oceanic ridge is the region along which two plates moves in the opposite direction, thereby producing a sea floor in due course of time. Along this margin, the rocks are the youngest and as one moves away from the mid oceanic ridge, the age of the rocks increases.

The Mid-Atlantic ridge is a type of mid oceanic ridge which is formed due to the divergent movement of the plates namely the Eurasian plate and the North American plate, which in the course of time formed the Atlantic ocean.
