What type of rocks make up the lithosphere?
There are actually three - metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary
What two types of rocks make up the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is primarily made up of two types of rocks: igneous and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma, while metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone a change in texture and composition due to heat and pressure.
Which is the million of small pieces of ice coated rocks around the planet Saturn are collectively?
The many pieces of rocks around the planet Saturn make up its rings.
What type of material can make up sediments?
The types of material are: loose pieces of rocks, minerals, pieces of plant and animal remians.
What is the lithosphere's composition?
The lithosphere includes all of the crust of the earth as well as the uppermost part of the mantle. It is made up of rocks.
Does pieces of small rocks form beaches?
Yes. Sand is made up of broken up rocks and minerals. I am sure there is more to the composition, but rocks do help make up the beach with the help of the ocean, of course. :)
All of these type of rock made up the lithosphere except?
Magma. The lithosphere is composed of solid rocks, such as granite, basalt, and sandstone, that make up the outer layer of the Earth. Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface.
What color is the lithosphere in earth?
The lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth's crust, varies in color depending on the region. Generally, the lithosphere appears in shades of gray, brown, or reddish tones due to the different minerals present in the rocks that make up the crust.
The crust and uppermost mantle make up the rigid outer layer of earth called the?
The uppermost mantle and the crust makes the lithosphere.
Rocks are made up of broken pieces of other rocks are called what rocks?
saltation

Pieces of the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is composed of the Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle. It is divided into large pieces called tectonic plates that make up the Earth's surface. These plates move and interact with each other, leading to phenomena like earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain formation.
