What else can I help you with?
Is earths surface stable and stationary now?
No, Earth's surface is constantly changing due to processes like erosion, tectonic plate movement, volcanic activity, and weathering. However, these changes are usually gradual and not noticeable on human timescales.
What do we call a measure of height above earths surface?
Height above earths surface is called elevation
What is the stable temperature of the earths crust is important in the production of?
The stable temperature of the Earth's crust is important in the production of geothermal energy. This temperature determines the viability of harnessing heat from beneath the Earth's surface to generate electricity or provide heating. A stable temperature allows for more efficient and reliable extraction of geothermal energy.
What is is The layer of rock and mineral fragments produced by weathering and covering nearly all of earths land surface called?
The layer of rock and mineral fragments produced by weathering and covering nearly all of Earth's land surface is called regolith. Regolith is made up of various sizes of rock and mineral particles that result from the breakdown of bedrock over time due to weathering processes.
What is the name of earths surface layer?
The Earth's surface layer is called the crust.
What are mineral deposits beneath earths surface that are different from the surrounding rocks are called what?
These are called veins
Which mineral is the most stable at the Earth's surface?
Quartz is one of the most stable minerals at the Earth's surface. It is resistant to weathering and can be found in sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks.
What are similarities of earths surface and ocean of bottom?
mountains and stable ground- i would competely agree!
The earths land area is covered by layer of mineral and decomposed organic material what is the term for this surface of material?
It is called soil.

Which mineral is the least stable at the earth's surface?
The mineral that is generally considered the least stable at the Earth's surface is olivine. Olivine is susceptible to weathering and can easily alter into other minerals like serpentine or clay minerals when exposed to moisture and atmospheric conditions. Its instability is primarily due to its high-temperature formation and the conditions prevalent at the Earth's surface, which lead to its breakdown over time.
What percent of the earths surface is the US?
100
Is the earths surface stable and stationary now?
The Earth's surface is not entirely stable or stationary; it is constantly undergoing changes due to geological processes. Tectonic plates move, causing earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains. Additionally, erosion, weathering, and human activities contribute to surface alterations. Overall, while certain areas may appear stable, the Earth's surface is dynamic and ever-changing.
How much of earths oceans cover earths surface?
70% or 80% of water covers the earths surface
Does the outer core cover earths surface?
No the crust covers earths surface
Why are map projecters needed?
to draw the earths surface.
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
