Which layer of the earth is broken into separate sections called plates?
The crust.
An outer layer of gas on a terrestrial?
This is the planets atmosphere, it can then be broken down into further sections.
What is the name of the outer layer of our planet that is broken up into a number of moving plates?
The Lithosphere.
What part of the earth is broken into large plates?
The litoshphere is the part of the earth broken into large plates also known as the crust the lithoshpere is the thinnest layer of all earths layers it
What is the layer just below Earth's surface called?
The layer just below Earth's surface is called the lithosphere. It consists of the uppermost part of the mantle and the crust, and it is broken into tectonic plates that are constantly moving and interacting with each other.
Which layer of the earth is broken into separate sections called plates?
The crust.
Which layer of the earth is broken into seprate sections called plates?
This layer is the crust, which is the outermost layer of the earth's surface.
According to the theory of plate tectonics which layer of earth is broken into separate sections called plates?
Lithosphere
Which layer is broken into pieces called tectonics plates?
The lithosphere
What is the rigid layer of the Earth surrounding the asthenosphere?
The rigid layer of the earth that surround the asthenosphere is also known as the lithosphere. The lithosphere layer is further broken into several large sections which are known as tectonic plates. These plates ride above the asthenosphere.
What is broken into tectonic plates?
The Earths upper layer which consists of the Crust and Upper Mantle makes up the Tectonic Plates. This layer is called the Lithosphere.
Where is the location of plate tectonics?
First of all, there is no location of plate techtonics! Plate techtonics is the theory that Earth's crust and part of the upper mantle are broken into sections. These sections (plates) move on a plasticlike layer of the mantle.
