They challenge their classmates to provide evidence for present day mantle convection. A classmate shows them a seismic tomographic map and cross section showing variations in S-wave velocities.

A) The seismic tomographic map and cross section do show evidence for present day mantle convection and offers a strong affirmation of mantle convection.
B) The seismic tomographic map and cross section do show evidence present day mantle convection but this data cannot be used as evidence for mantle convection.
C) The seismic tomographic map and cross section has a random pattern of S-wave velocities and offers no evidence for anything.
D) The seismic tomographic map and cross section shows evidence for mantle convection in the past but not for present day mantle convection.
