The layer immediately beneath the Moho is the core?
False. Directly below the Moho is the mantle, as the Moho marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle.
The lithosphere includes all of the core and part of the mantle?
It seems like it is a question from a book. but the answer is FALSE. It is the crust, not the core
True or false magnetic stripes on the ocean floor are places where oceanic crust sinks back to the mantle?
F
True are false The crust is very thick and heavy?
False, the crust is actually a lot less dense than the materials below the crust, the mantle and the core, which contains the heavier elements of the earth's composition. The crust is in fact very thin in comparision to the size of the earth. The crust is only the first 40 km of under the surface, while to get to the core it is 6378km. The crust is about .62% of the earth's thickness, its almost like imagining earth as an orange and the crst being the wax covering the orange.
Much of the upper mantle thought to be made of granite true or false?
False. The upper mantle is believed to be composed primarily of peridotite.
Convection currents within the Earth cause plate tectonics due to the movement of the mantle true or false?
No. Convection currents which could lead to volcanism in the crust occur in the mantle. The crust is too cold and brittle for convection currents to occur.
The layer immediately beneath the Moho is the core?
False. Directly below the Moho is the mantle, as the Moho marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle.
Is the mantle earth's outer layer?
Yes the mantle is the layer bellow the crust that is heavier and denser. The mantle is much wider in comparison to the crust but the layer bellow it is wider and many miles deeper. I hope this answered you question.
The lithosphere includes all of the core and part of the mantle?
It seems like it is a question from a book. but the answer is FALSE. It is the crust, not the core
True or false magnetic stripes on the ocean floor are places where oceanic crust sinks back to the mantle?
F
TRUE or FALSE The mantle is the third layer of the earth and takes up about 67 percent of the earth's total volume?
FalseThe Mantle is the Earth's 2nd layer. It goes in the order of the Crust, the Mantle, the Outer Core and then the Inner Core.If you follow this answer, you will get it wrong on Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader. The Answer given is Mantle.
What are places where oceanic crust sinks back to the mantle?
No. Mid oceanic ridges are the places where new oceanic crust are forming.
True are false The crust is very thick and heavy?
False, the crust is actually a lot less dense than the materials below the crust, the mantle and the core, which contains the heavier elements of the earth's composition. The crust is in fact very thin in comparision to the size of the earth. The crust is only the first 40 km of under the surface, while to get to the core it is 6378km. The crust is about .62% of the earth's thickness, its almost like imagining earth as an orange and the crst being the wax covering the orange.
Are all pyramids are platonic solids true or false?
False
Ions are randomly arranged in ionic solids true or false?
false
Much of the upper mantle thought to be made of granite true or false?
False. The upper mantle is believed to be composed primarily of peridotite.
Is the crust earth's only solid layer true or false?
True or false: the crust includes BOTH dry land and the bottoms of the oceans?
