The crust is not one single piece. It is broken up into different plates of different sizes and shapes. This is what allows them to move and thus plate tectonics occurs.

What makes up the continental crust?
one of the types of crust that makes up the earths outer layer. continental crust is thicker than oceanic crust and is made up of less dense rocks such as granite. AKT ♥
Is the earth's crust is made up of one unbroken piece or plate?
No. It is made of multiple moving pieces called tectonic plates.
Is the earths crust less than one percent of earths mass?
With a very sizable iron core and a (by comparison) wafer-thin crust, I doubt that the earth's crust even approximates a full percentage point.
Large section of earths crust that moves as one unit?
Plate

Carbon
What is one large piece of the lithosphere?
its made of mantle and crust
What is one fact about Earths crust?

What is a volcano fault?
Faults are made up of fractures in the earths crust. One side of the fault moves opposite of the other side.
