What layer of Earth makes up the plates and what layer causes them to move?
The plates are made up of the Earth's lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth. The movement of these plates is caused by the flow of the semi-fluid asthenosphere layer beneath the lithosphere.
What layer of the earth makes up earths plates?
The lithosphere.
What is the layer of the earth that makes up the tectonic plates?
The lithosphere.
What layer of the earth makes up the continental plates?
The continental lithosphere.
What layer of the earth makes these plates up?
The lithosphere (which is composed of the crust and solid brittle upper mantle) makes up the Earth's tectonic plates.
What percent of the earth is the lithosphere?
The lithosphere makes up about 0.1% of the Earth's total volume. It is the outermost layer of the Earth, consisting of the crust and upper part of the mantle.
How many percent is lithosphere?
The lithosphere makes up about 0.1% of Earth's total mass. It is the rigid outer layer of the Earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle.
What is the layer of the earth that makes up the solid part called?
The layer of the Earth that makes up the solid part is called the lithosphere. It consists of the crust and the upper part of the mantle. This layer is broken into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath it.
The crust and uppermost mantle make up the rigid outer layer of earth called the?
The uppermost mantle and the crust makes the lithosphere.
What is the outer crust?
The outer crust is the final layer around the earth. It is also the thinnest layer
What layer of the earth makes up these plates and what layer are the continents are sliding on?
The plates on the top of the upper mantle are referred to as the lithosphere, which slides on the asthenosphere.well the mantle causes the continents to move on the ocean floor and sand it makes it slideyea know the crustti is i dont ge ehttt
What layer of the Earth makes up the tectonic plates and what layer are the continents sliding on?
The continents of the Earth are sliding through the asthenosphere. This is the viscous part of the mantle on which the plates of the lithosphere sit.
