What crust is more dense oceanic or continental crust?
Oceanic crust is significantly denser.
What layer of the crust is the most dense?
Oceanic crust is more dense than continental crust.
What portion of the earths crust is more dense oceanic or contenintal?
Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. Oceanic crust has a density of about 3 g/cm^3, while continental crust has a lower density of about 2.7 g/cm^3.
What are the two types of lithoperic crust?
The two types of lithospheric crust are continental crust, which is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust, and oceanic crust, which is thinner and more dense than continental crust.
What are three differences between oceanic and continental crust?
Continental crust is mostly composed out of granite, oceanic crust out of basalt.Continental crust is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust.
What is difference of the continental crust and the oceanic crust?
Continental crust is thicker but less dense, and oceanic crust is thinner but more dense, making it heavier.
What crust is more dense oceanic or continental crust?
Oceanic crust is significantly denser.
What layer of the crust is the most dense?
Oceanic crust is more dense than continental crust.
What is the difference between continential and oceanic crust?
Continental crust is thicker, less dense, and typically older than oceanic crust. Oceanic crust is thinner, more dense, and younger as it is constantly being formed at mid-ocean ridges and being recycled at subduction zones.
What is the difference of continental crust and oceanic crust?
Two differences are that the oceanic crust is more dense than continental, and continental crust is composed mostly of granite, while oceanic is mostly basalt

What are the two types of crust on the earth?
There are two types of crust, and they are the oceanic crust and the continental crust. Oceanic crust is thinner yet more dense than continental crust, and continental crust is on average older than oceanic crust :)
What are the two types of lithoperic crust?
The two types of lithospheric crust are continental crust, which is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust, and oceanic crust, which is thinner and more dense than continental crust.
Which portion of earths crust is more dense. oceanic or continental?
Oceanic
Is the continental crust more dense than the oceanic crust?
Oceanic crust is thinner (about 6-8 km in total) and more dense. Continental crust is about 30-50 km thick.
What are three differences between oceanic and continental crust?
Continental crust is mostly composed out of granite, oceanic crust out of basalt.Continental crust is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust.
What is the densest type of crust?
No. The crust is the least dense of Earth's layers. The inner core is the densest player.
