The epiphyseal plates are also known as the growth plates. When these are thick, especially due to injury, they can eventually cause a deformity in the child's growth and development.

It means the person is not growing properly due to lack of calcium or it could mean there is enough calcium but the person is lacking vitamin D. This person needs to get calcium via milk or some type of supplement and a trip out in the sun will help with the vitamin D issue.The guy who generated the answer by reading the book
The oceanic crust is typically between 5 km (3 mi) to 10 km (6 mi) thick.
The lithosphere displaces the asthenoshpere. Thick tectonic plates, such as those made of continental crust, displace more asthenosphere than do thin plates, such as those made of oceanic lithosphere.
