What is folding as it relates to the lithosphere?

Folding is the ductile deformation of rocks. This means that they change shape without fracturing. This can occur in some parts of the lithosphere if the conditions are correct (very low strain rates, high temperatures and/or high confining pressures).


Why is lithosphere important to all living things?

Lithosphere is the solid part of the earth on which animals and plants exists. It provides land for agriculture, supports plants, and it's valuable minerals. The lithosphere is the rocky outer layer of any rocky planet, a term derived from the Greek for rocky sphere. The lithosphere is important to humans as it shields us, and all other organisms on Earth, from the immense heat of the Earth's inner core. The consequence of its formation is that water can exist in its liquid form, allowing for the carbon-based life forms that exist today. However, the lithosphere is also important for the stability of the Earth. The inner layers of the Earth are subjected to pressure by the lithosphere as it is affected by gravity, forcing the innermost elements into the Earth's radioactive core, continuing the nuclear fusion that maintains the planet's constant state of balance. Finally, due to the Earth's formation by the congregation of elements from a long-passed supernova explosion, a number of essential heavy elements, such as carbon, iron, etc. had become trapped in the lithosphere as they settled in the Earth's upper layers as it cooled. It is these elements that allow and comprise much of what exists on the surface today.
