No, it isn't. It's the ball of rock itself, the earth. We got "lithos" from the Greek for stone. The lithosphere is the stone sphere, or the earth.

Explain why the rotation of earth could be considered a scientific theory?
because a scientific theory is 100% true and scientist are sure that the earth is rotating around the sun and the earth is shaped like a ball if if there is light on a part the pther will not have light
What orbits a star and reflects the stars light?
Many planets around each star reflect the star's light. For example think about Earth's orbit around the sun, a big star
How much light on the earth surface?
it is 70% so that is the answer of how much light on the earth surface
What causes the earth to have periods of light and darkness?
The rotation. When the earth rotates, sides of it don't see the sun. Which are like sunsets and sunrises. The earth is rotating which takes away light and gives light.
Does the Earth produce light?
no
How do we know that the earth is a sphere?
eclipsesun > earth > moonthe light from sun shines on earth and makes a (partial) sphere shadow on moon
Can you make light circular?
Only around a black hole. There is a sphere around every black hole where light orbits the black hole.
What is a giant sphere with a light blue membrane that stretches across the entire surface of a cell?
Earth...I think
Why do you change from day time to night time every 12 hours?
It is not like that. Earth revolves around the sun and Earth is sphere and when suns rays fall on earth the half earth gets light but half did not get it. Since Earth rotates about its own axis slowly the half sides gets alternately as 12hours and 24 hours as a day. In one day 12hours get half Earth light and next 12 half night that is no light
How does the sun light get around the earth?
the earth rotates
How many time does light travel around the earth in one second?
light can travel around earth about seven times
Can you give me some slogans on lithosphere?
lithosphere itself tells us that light the land do not make it barren
Can you get a light sphere in Pokemon platinum if so where?
No you can't. I've allready cleared the game and there is no light sphere.
Why in coulomb's law for charges force is inversely proportional to square of distance between charges?
Imagine a light bulb in the center of a sphere. It emits a fixed quantity of light. That's how much light will reach the sphere. The concentration of light per unit of area, on the sphere, will depend upon how large the sphere is. And the area of a sphere is proportional to the square of the radius of the sphere. So the intensity of the light will be inversely proportional to the square of the distance which it has to travel. It is effectively illuminating a larger sphere (even if there is no actual sphere, the principle remains the same).
Why you get night and day?
Earth is continuously rotating on its axis around the sun and it is a sphere. The part of Earth that comes in front of sun gets light from sun and hence day Appers on these areas while the areas which are on the other side get night.
How do you demonstrate seasons I am doing a weather project and one of the tasks is to come up with a presentation and or demonstartion on seasons So the question is How do you demonstate season?
The seasons are caused by the rotational tilt of the Earth. Instead of pointing straight up and down, perpendicular to the sun's equator, the Earth's poles are tilted at a 23-degree angle. This means that at certain times of year, one-half of the Earth receives more sunlight than the other half. When the North Pole is facing the sun, the Northern Hemisphere receives more sun. This is summer in the north and winter in the south. When the South Pole faces the sun, the opposite is true. In order to demonstrate this, set up a sphere (baseballs, basketballs or globes) on a track around a strong light source, such as a light bulb. Make sure the sphere is tilted 23-degrees and then move the sphere around the bulb. The changing light patterns on the sphere will mimic the various seasons on Earth. A series of four spheres could also be set up around the light bulb, all tilted in the same direction, at 23-degrees. Each sphere would represent one season - summer, fall, winter, and spring - for each hemisphere.
How much of the moon gets light from the sun at all times?
It depends how much part of earth is in between sun and moon blocking sun's light as the moon is a sphere and earth's shadow causes it to look like being changing its shape.
