The lithosphere is brittle. A brittle material is one that loses cohesion when it fails allowing fractures to propagate through the material. The lithosphere is brittle because it is at too low a temperature and pressure to fail or deform in a ductile manner.
The lithosphere.
The lines of earthquake epicenters most effectively outline the edges of the lithosphere plates. The epicenter refers to the point on the earth's surface above the focus of an earthquake.
The lithosphere is the brittle surface layer composed of the crust and uppermost mantle. The asthenosphere is the ductile upper mantle on which the lithosphere is able to move.
Plates under the ground rub against each other creating friction and therefore raise and crack the surface.
8.5 is how much
Because there are tectonic plates there in the lithosphere.
The impact of an earthquake on the earth's lithosphere is quite huge. The lithosphere in most cases will be torn apart as a result of the movement of plate tectonics.
Earthquake causes fracture of the ground.
The natural disaster that takes place in the lithosphere is Earthquake.
Earthquakes are part of the Lithosphere.
The two sub-layers of the earth's crust (lithosphere) that move,float&sometimes fracture & whose interaction causes continental drift, earthquake, volcanoes, mountains & oceanic trenches

I can give you several sentences.The earthquake left a fracture in the earth near our house.You will fracture that arm if you're not careful.That was a nasty fracture you had.
