What do geologists call the crust and upper core mantle?
Geologists have determined that our planet the Earth has a layered internal structure. There is a solid nickel iron core surrounded by a layer of molten iron. Above this there is the mantle and floating on top of the mantle there is the crust made of Oceanic and Continental materials.
Is the outermost layer of the earth call the mantle?
No. The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.
What do you call pieces of earth's crust that are floating on the mantle?
Tectonic plates.
Earth's crust and upper mantle are broken into sections called?
They are broken into sections which we call Plates.
What do you call the layers of earth?
For a science project you could use different colored sand.
What do geologists call the crust and the upper most mantle?
Lithosphere

What do geologist call the earths crust and upper mantle?
The lithosphere.
What do you call the plastic zone between the mantle and the crust?
Mohorovicic discontinuity (or simply Moho)
Is the outermost layer of the earth call the mantle?
No. The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.
What do you call pieces of earth's crust that are floating on the mantle?
Tectonic plates.
What do you call the region of Earth between the core and the crust?
Between the core and the crust is the mantle. The upper mantle contains the hard lithosphere and the weak asthenosphere. The lower mantle is marked by an increase in temperature and pressure. As a result, the rocks in the lower mantle flow much slower.The mantle...the mantleThis layer is called the mantle.The part of the Earth that is located between the core and the crust is called the mantle.The four general layers are:1. Crust (outer and surface layer)2. Mantle (thickest individual layer)3) Outer Core (liquid)4) Inner Core (solid)The mantle is sometimes divided into the mantle (proper) and the upper mantle, which exhibits some different characteristics from the layer as a whole.
Earth's crust and upper mantle are broken into sections called?
They are broken into sections which we call Plates.
Outer most layer of earth?
The outermost layer of the Earth is the crust or lithosphere.
What do geologists call an area where is mostly one kind of topography?
geologists call an area where is one type of topography is a landform
What do geologists call an area where there is one type of topography?
Geologists call an area where there is one type of topography a landform region.
What do geologists call an area where there is mostly one kind of topography?
geologists call an area where is one type of topography is a landform
