Because stone floats on metal.
how is the earths crust related to the lithosphere
The lithosphere is the part of the Earth that contains tectonic plates. These plates are divided pieces of the lithosphere that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
crust
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.
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.
lithosphere.
yes because its under the 2nd layer of crust
how is the earths crust related to the lithosphere
the lithosphere and the crust of the earth are the same lithosphere is another word for crust so the thickest is both of them.
The lithosphere is the part of the Earth that contains tectonic plates. These plates are divided pieces of the lithosphere that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
The lithosphere is the part of the Earth's structure that is approximately 100 km thick. It consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle and is divided into tectonic plates.

lithosphere
Yes, the crust of the Earth is part of the lithosphere
the Lithosphere or Lithospheric Plates
I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust
It's called the lithosphere.
