What two bodies of continental lithosphere are pulled together at a convergent boundary?
i dont know for sure, but i would guess that it creates a subduction zone with the continental lithosphere on top and the oceanic lithosphere subsiding.
What are three facts about the lithosphere?
So three facts about the lithosphere would be:It is the uppermost layer on Earth.It was discovered by seismology.It contains rocks.Hope that helped! :)
Where would air pressure be greatest on a mountain or a beach?
It would be greatest where the atmosphere above you was thickest. Given this information you can work it out.
Where would a geologist collect rocks and soil samples?
Lithosphere
What sections of Earth's crust ad upper mantle?
That would be the lithosphere. This is broken into sections known as lithospheric (or tectonic) plates.
Where would crust be the thickest?
The crust is thickest under continents! The crust is thickest under Mount Everest, where it's approx. 65km deep
What is the term for the cool outer layer of the earth made up of the crust and the upper part of the mantle?
Lithosphere
How does the Biosphere interact with the Lithosphere?
the lithosphere is what the biosphere lives on and if there was no lithosphere the biosphere would die. the biosphere is what the lithosphere needs to survive. the bodies of dead matter decomposes to make the lithosphere able to make more biomatter for the biosphere.
What is a sentence using the word lithosphere plate?
The lithosphere is the crust and upper mantle of the Earth. A good sentence would be, he wanted to study the lithosphere.
What is oceanic lithosphere?
The lithosphere is composed of crust and hard upper mantle. The oceanic lithosphere would be hard upper mantle and basaltic oceanic crust.
What is the oceanic lithosphere?
The lithosphere is composed of crust and hard upper mantle. The oceanic lithosphere would be hard upper mantle and basaltic oceanic crust.
The myocardium would be the thickest in the left ventricle?
around the left ventricle
How do you write a fraction of the relationship of the thickest layer to the thinnest layer?
It would be (measure of thickest layer)/(measure of thinnest layer), with both measurements expressed in the same units.
What way would you go if you went to the lithosphere?
you would go down
What season of the year would a rabbit's fur be thickest?
spring check
Where are impenetrable jungles in Africa?

What is the rigid shell of rock that surrounds the earth called?
The Earth does not have a "rigid" outer covering, it has an atmosphere.Below the atmosphere is the crust which is made of tectonic plates. However there plates are NOT rigid and to describe them as such would be incorrect, they deform and fold.
