What is the lower crust made up of?
The lower crust is primarily made up of igneous rocks such as gabbro and basalt. It is denser and more mafic (rich in magnesium and iron) compared to the upper crust. The lower crust is also hotter and more ductile than the upper crust.
What layer can you find magma in?
Most magma is foound in upper portions of the mantle near plate boundaries or at hot spots, but some is found in the crust in magma chambers.
Is the lower portion of the crust and the upper portion of the mantle called the core?
No, the lower portion of the crust and the upper portion of the mantle together are not called the core. The core is a separate layer found beneath the mantle, and it is divided into the outer core and inner core based on composition and properties.
What layer of the earth is immediately below the crust?
It is the upper and lower mantle. It has the consistency of warm asphalt.
What is made of the upper part of the mantle and the crust?
If you are using the term 'upper crust' euphemistically and not to refer to bread or pies, then the upper crust is made of aristocrats. If you mean the upper part of the earth's crust, then it is made of the lightest elements from which the planet is made (silicon, aluminum etc).
In what way is the lower crust different from the upper crust?
The lower crust is denser and more mafic in composition compared to the upper crust, which is less dense and more felsic. The lower crust is also usually deeper in the Earth's crust compared to the upper crust.
What is the lower crust made up of?

How do you make a sentence with upper mantle?

What layers of earth makes up the lithosphere?

Where is magma found in earth's layers?
lower crust to upper mantle
What are four layers that make up Earths atmosphere?
lower core, upper core, mantle, and crust
What layer can you find magma in?
Most magma is foound in upper portions of the mantle near plate boundaries or at hot spots, but some is found in the crust in magma chambers.

What 2 layers make up the Earth's crust?
The Earth's crust is composed of two layers: the continental crust, which makes up the landmasses, and the oceanic crust, which forms the seafloor. These two crustal layers differ in composition, thickness, and density.
What are the layers of Earth today?
crust, upper mantle, lower mantle, outter core,inner core,rock
