What is the same about the lithosphere and the core?
The same about the lithosphere and the core is they both are hot :-(
Why must the production and destruction of the lithosphere be going on at the same rate?
New lithosphere is constantly being produced at the oceanic ridges. Lithosphere is consumed at the subduction zones. A balance is maintained because older, denser proportions of oceanic lithosphere descend into the mantle at a rate equal to seafloor production.
Why does oceanic lithosphere sink beneath convergent lithosphere at convergent boundaries?
As odd as it is to think of things this way, continental lithosphere is more buoyant than oceanic lithosphere. The oceanic lithosphere is more dense.
How are the tectonic plates and the lithosphere related?
because they are all the same lakibhjfvb v dcefkeuwgvjedv'gfd
Is the lithosphere and asthenosphere boundary above or below the Moho?
The boundary between the asthenosphere and the lithosphere is normally below the Moho (which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle). The exception to this is below mid-ocean ridges where the moho and the lithosphere / asthenosphere boundary are at the same depth.
What is the same about the lithosphere and the core?
The same about the lithosphere and the core is they both are hot :-(
Which is thicker earths crust or lithosphere?
the lithosphere and the crust of the earth are the same lithosphere is another word for crust so the thickest is both of them.
How are the lithosphere and the crust the same?
The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper mantle. On average the lithosphere extends about 100 km into the Earth's interior.
How is crust and lithosphere the same?
"Lithosphere" is the term given to the rocky outer layers of the Earth. The "Earth's Crust" is another name for the same thing.
How are lithosphere and the crust the same and different?
The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper mantle. On average the lithosphere extends about 100 km into the Earth's interior.
How is lithosphere different from the athenosphere?
It is different because they are not the same
Is lithosphere and the geosphere the same?
No. The lithosphere is the outermost crust, the geosphere is the inside of earth. (I think, but I know that the last person to answer said "yes" so this is a better answer.) no: you're both wrong. the lithosphere is part of the mantle, which are plate tectonics. the geosphere and lithosphere are the same thing. they are both part of earth and have to do with its interior
Do the atmosphere hydrosphere and the lithosphere interact with each other?
Hydrosphere erodes a part of lithosphere and at the same time the atmosphere is constantly incorporating a part of hydrosphere via evaporation and dumping some of it in lithosphere. From the lithosphere, it is transported back to the hydrosphere and the cycle continues.
Is the litosphere the same all over the world?
No the lithosphere is not the same all over the world.
Why must the production and destruction of the lithosphere be going on at the same rate?
New lithosphere is constantly being produced at the oceanic ridges. Lithosphere is consumed at the subduction zones. A balance is maintained because older, denser proportions of oceanic lithosphere descend into the mantle at a rate equal to seafloor production.
