What else can I help you with?
The crust is only what of earths thickness?
half of earths layer
What is the earths under crust surrounded by?
Earths under crust surrounded by Upper Mantle (35-60 km) .The mantle is composed of sillicate rocks that are rich in iron and magnesium relative to the overlying crust.
How do floods affect the earths crust?
it gets soggy
Is it true that earths crust contains most of earths mass?
No. The crust contains a small fraction of earth's mass. Most of the mass is contained in the mantle.
What does rocks in earths mantle contain a higher percentage of what than rocks in earths crust?
iron and magnesium
Are some mountains get higher by earth crust?
No ther are not mountains that get higher by the earths crust
What do scientists believe that is happening to the segments of earths crust?
it has been washed into the oceans as the continental crust has eroded.
What do they call the large piece on the earths crust?
Mountains
Percentage of the exposed earths crust occupied by mountains is?
6%
What happens when the earths crust moves?
erosion
Why does the erosion take place in the crust?
Erosion happens in the earths crust and it happens because of that layer is exposed to that weather
What happens when you go further into the earths crust?
you get hotter and hotter
Is mountains cause by Earth's crust?
yes, mountains are the result of drifting of earths crust towards each other over millions of result... The Himalaya, Andes etc. mountains were made through this drifting process....
As erosion removes the tops of mountains the crust will rise upwards This is an example of what?
This is an example of isostasy, which is the concept that the Earth's lithosphere (crust) floats on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. As material is eroded from the top of mountains, the lithosphere readjusts to maintain equilibrium, resulting in the rising of the crust.
What occurs when rocks layers bend due to stress in the Earths crust?
I found that folding happens
What happens to earths surface as huge pieces of crust move?
most times earthquakes occur
What type of mountain is form by upward movements by ckunks of earths crust?
Fold mountains are formed by the upward movements of chunks of the Earth's crust. This occurs when tectonic plates collide, causing horizontal compression and the crust to buckle and fold, leading to the formation of fold mountains like the Himalayas.
