What is the crust and the upper mantle are called?
The crust and uppermost hard rocky mantle, together, is known as the lithosphere, which is above the plastic-like upper mantle area known as the asthenosphere.
What is crust and upper mantle of the EARTH?
The upper mantle is in between the lower mantle and the earths crust Crust- the outer most solid shell of the earth. The Uppermost mantle and the earth's crust form the lithosphere.
Plates are composed of earths crust and?
dirt and rigid rocks
The lithosphere includes the uppermost part of earths mantle and earths?
The lithosphere consists of the rigid outermost layer of Earth, which includes the crust and a portion of the upper mantle. It is broken into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath. This layer is where most geological activity, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, occurs.
What is the moho in the earths layers?
The Moho, short for Mohorovičić discontinuity, is a boundary between the Earth's crust and the mantle. It marks a significant change in seismic wave velocities, indicating the transition from the less dense, rigid crust to the more dense, flowing mantle beneath.
What is a area of rigid blocks of earth's crust upper mantle?
plates
Rigid layer of earths surface made up of the crust and a part of the upper mantle?

What is a rigid layer made up of the crust and the upper part of the earths mantle?
the Lithosphere or Lithospheric Plates

Is earths Lithosphere the rigid outer shell of the planet?
Yes. Well, more or less rigid.
