It is called plates.
Name the two types of lithospheric plates?
There are two types of lithosphere: the oceanic lithosphere and the continental lithosphere. The oceanic lithosphere exists in the ocean basins while the continental lithosphere exists in the continental crust.
What is study of lithosphere plates called?
plate tectonics
What are sections of the lithosphere called?
These are known as tectonic plates.
What lithosphere is divided into pieces called?
tectonic plates
The lithosphere is broken into separate sections called what?
The lithosphere is broken into about 100 separate sections called tectonic or crustal plates. They are divided by faults which are very much like cracks between plates. These plates float on top of the asthenosphere. A rift valley is a deep valley that forms where two plates move apart.
What are lithosphere plates and how are lithosphere plates related to earthquakes?
they are related by,they are plates
What are the large pieces of the lithosphere called?
The large pieces of the lithosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact with each other at plate boundaries, leading to phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation.
