How is crude oil brought to the earths surface?
It is pumped out of oil reserves within the crust of the earth
Crude oil is often found in the Earths crust why is this a problem?
billions of gallons of oil and tons of coal has been extracted from the earths crust which is obviously leaving an emptyness behind, i find it hard it hard to believe that this space remains empty without any collapse in the crust to fill the empty space. if there was a collapse in the earths crust then it would surely be felt as an earthquake or maybe even a tsunami.Earth is only a few kilometers thickness but crude oil pockets could lie anywhere, even under the sea.The crust has to be bored and plugged up for extraction which causes spillage and harms bio life to upset the ecology.
Earths crust is part of the?
The earths crust is a part of the outermost layer.
How do you think the convection cell might affect the earths crust?
The way the convection cell might affect the crust above it is that it can cause the earths surface to turn into a volcano. If there is already a volcano there then it will erupt,
How do you get silicon out of earths crust?
Silicon is a mixture of the minerals of the earths crust. so.... silicon isn't something from the earths crust. -thanks for your question.

Do compression and tension affect the thickness of earth's crust?
Yes, Compression can thicken the earths crust and tension can cause thinning in the earths crust.
Does the earth's crust cause global warming?
No. While events on the earths crust can cause global warming, the crust itself does not.
The removal of material by erosion will cause earths crust to?
rise
Why Singapore does not get earthquakes?
its just cause the earths crust didint crack there before
What cause ocean ridges to form?
