its the plate it was on my homework and im in 6th grade
the outer mantle
It is actually really the "plate" or "plates" It was on my study guide and I got it right(:
lithosphere
the Continental crust is thicker
Earths lithosphere is made up of upper mantle. The earths lithosphere is broken into separate sections and it is called as tectonic plates or plate tectonics.
the outer mantle
The crust is actually part of the lithosphere, though it is 'carried' by the magma of the outer mantle.
''plates'', it was on my crossword for homework (6th grader)
The section of the lithosphere that carries the crust is called the tectonic plate. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact with each other at plate boundaries, leading to geological phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.
No it is really subduction
The upper section of the lithosphere is known as the crust. It is made up of solid rock that includes both continental crust, found beneath landmasses, and oceanic crust, found beneath oceans. The crust is the outermost layer of the Earth's surface.
The Lithosphere
it is not magma srry guys who read this earlier it is i think convection currents thats wat my school website says so ya.
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 solid outer section of Earth, which includes Earth's crust, and the underlying cool, dense, and rigid upper part of the mantle.
The crust is the outer layer of the lithosphere.
Yes, the crust of the Earth is part of the lithosphere
