it is actually called continental crust
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.
1. The Oceanic crust is dense while the Continental crust is relatively lighter. 2. The Oceanic crust consists of Silicon and Magnessium, while the Continental crust has Silicon and Alluminium. 3. The Oceanic crust is thin, while the Continental crust is thick. 4. The Oceanic crust makes up the ocean floor, while the Continental crust carries the continents.
The continental crust is less dense
Continental crust is far older than oceanic crust.
it is actually called continental crust
The definition of ocean continental collision means the continental crust and the ocean's crust collide with one another. A subduction is formed when the collision occurs.

what is the continental crust
continental crust
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.
Continental crust is the thicker of the two: it extends far beneath and above the Oceanic crust.
Continental crust.
I think it is the continental crust
It is not. The oceanic crust is thinner than the continental crust!

Oceanic crust is thinner and denser than continental crust.
