Lithosphere.
crust
The earth's solid rocky outer layer is called the crust. This is the thinnest layer of the Earth, which is divided into oceanic and continental crust. It is where all terrestrial life exists and where most geological processes take place.
Crust is the hard outer surface of something, typically the earth or a baked food such as bread or pie. In geology, the Earth's crust is the outermost layer of the Earth's surface, consisting of a variety of rocks and minerals.
The outer shell of the Earth is called the crust. The uppermost hard, rocky layer of the mantle is attached to the crust. Together they form a layer called the lithosphere, which constitute the structures known as lithospheric plates.
The outer layer of the Earth is called the crust. It is a solid, rocky shell that is broken up into several tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. The crust is divided into oceanic (thinner and denser) and continental (thicker and less dense) crust.

The Earth's rocky outer layer that makes up the landmasses is called the crust. It is thinnest beneath the oceans and thickest beneath the continents, and is divided into several large plates that float on the semi-fluid layer of the mantle underneath.
The Crust is the earth's hard outer shell which is composed of silicon, aluminum, calcium, sodium and potassium.
Yes, the Earth's crust sits on the upper mantle and is not directly connected to the Earth's core. The core is composed of molten iron and nickel, while the crust is a rocky outer layer that is separated from the core by the mantle.
