What else can I help you with?
What do you call a gap in the earths crust through which molten rock escapes onto the earths surface?
Volcano or shield volcano.
Why is there no sedimentary rock deep in the earths crust?
Sedimentary rocks get transformed into metamorphic and eventually igneous rocks in deep earth's crust.
When does magma become lava?
It should be magma is the hottest because it is usually molten rock that has not reached the surface during an eruption.Lava is 2nd hottest. It is the molten rock we see when a crack in the crust of the earth or a volcano eruption allows molten rock from beneath the crust to come up.
What does ocean crust mean in science?
The oceanic crust is the part of the earth's crust that is below the ocean. The rock that makes up the oceanic crust is about 200 million years old.
What is the layer of rock that comprises 67 of earths mass?
The mantle.
How does shearing affect rock?
Shearing is a deformation of a material substance in which parallel internal surfaces slide past one another. It affects the rocks in the Earth's crust when the rocks are being pulled apart in opposite horizontal directions.
How does stress affect earth's crust?
Shearing, tension, and compression work over millions of years to change the shape and volume of rock. Those are types of stress.
How stress affect earth's crust?

What causes stress earths crust?
The movement in earths plates create powerful forces that pull or squeeze the rock in the crust.
What does the Earths crust mostly consist of?
Igneous rock.
What makes up most of earths crust?
rock
What is the layer of the rock beneath the earths crust?
mantle
What rock is found deep in the earths crust?
gyudryuj
What is melted rock on the earths is called?
Lava....when its under the earths crust its called magma.
What is rock shearing?
Shearing of rocks is when rocks are pushed in opposite directions.
Is the layer of the rock under the surface called earths crust?
Yes it is call a crust 😁
How does a metamorphic rock turn into a igneous rock?
If it finds its way dowm into the earths crust through rock cycle and then is melted and mixes together to form molten magma, it could re-erupt to the earths surface and form an extrusive igneous rock or cool and solidify within the earths crust as an intrusive igneous rock.
