Is a focus or a plate part of the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is comprised of a series of plates, composed of the crust and upper mantle.
What is the upper layer of the Earth including the crust?
The layer of the Earth which forms the tectonic plates is composed of the crust and uppermost mantle and is called the lithosphere.
What is the rigid layer that includes the upper part of the mantle and the crust of the Earth?
The lithosphere is composed of the crust and uppermost mantle. Combined, they form the lithospheric plates.
What comprises the Earth's lithosphere?
pie is awsome
What are two parts in lithospheric plates?
i believe it is the crust and upper mantle...
Plates are composed of the?
crust and part of the upper mantle
Which layers of the earth compose the earth's plates?
The lithosphere (which is composed of the crust and solid brittle upper mantle) makes up the Earth's tectonic plates.
What two layers of the earth are plates composed?
upper part of the mantle and end of the crust.
What is composed of oceanic or continental crust and upper mantle?
The crust and upper mantle consist of hard rocks which form the moving plates of the outer layer of Earth.
What is composed of oceanic continental crust and upper mantle?
That would be the lithosphere which is split into tectonic plates.
Is a focus or a plate part of the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is comprised of a series of plates, composed of the crust and upper mantle.
What is the layer of the earth that is composed of large plates that interlock and move over time?
The earth has tectonic plates are made up of Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle layer underneath. The crust and upper mantle are called the lithosphere.
What is the upper layer of the Earth including the crust?
The layer of the Earth which forms the tectonic plates is composed of the crust and uppermost mantle and is called the lithosphere.
Is the crust a layer of rocks under the plate or is the crust the plates?
The crust is the layer at the surface that forms the upper part of the plates. The plates also include a portion of the upper mantle just beneath the crust. Together, the crust and this upper portion of the mantle form the lithosphere.
What layer of the earth makes these plates up?
The lithosphere (which is composed of the crust and solid brittle upper mantle) makes up the Earth's tectonic plates.
Large segments of the crust and upper mantle known as?
Large segments of the crust and upper mantle known as the Lithospheric plates.
Which layer of the earth contains the tectonic plates?
The plates are part of the crust, the upper layer of the Earth. The plates are moved by currents in the upper mantle. The plates and flexible upper mantle are referred to collectively as the lithosphere and sit atop the mantle layer called the aesthenosphere.
