What does the crust float on?
The crust rides or floats on the mantle. :)
Is earths mantle hotter or cooler than the crust?
The mantle is hotter than the crust.
What is the crust and brittle upper mantle called?
Earth's crust and brittle upper mantle is called the lithosphere.
What is the thin solid outermost layer above the mantle?
The thin solid outermost layer above the mantle is the crust, and the crust is the layer we live on.
Is the mantle or the crust nearest to the core?
The Earth is made up of three layers. The center is the core, surrounded by the mantle, which is surrounded by the crust. So the mantle is closest to the core.
What the crust and mantle don't have in common?
The crust is above the mantle and the mantle is below the crust
What force drives the process of pulling dense pieces of oceanic crust downward towards the mantle?
The force driving the process of pulling dense pieces of oceanic crust downward towards the mantle is gravity. As oceanic crust cools and becomes denser, it sinks into the mantle due to gravitational forces. This process is known as subduction.
Does the mantle separate the crust and mantle?
No the Mantle seperates the crust and the outer core
What layers of earth makes up the lithosphere?
Crust and the upper mantle
What does the crust float on?
The crust rides or floats on the mantle. :)
The section of earth beneath the crust?
Mantle Is The Below Layer Of The Crust In Earth.
Is the lithosphere in the mantle or crust?
uppermost part of the mantle and the crust together
What is the coldest crust or the mantle?
The crust is much colder than the mantle.
Why does Earth's crust sit on top of the mantle?
The crust lies on top of the mantle because it is composed of less dense materials than the mantle is. The crust is essentially floating on the mantle.
How are the crust's and the mantle's meaning differ?
The crust is thin and solid and the mantle is rockie
What is harder the mantle or the crust?
Crust
Why is mantle hotter and denser than the crust?
The mantle is closer to the molten core of earth, so it is constantly heated by it. The crust is exposed to the atmosphere, which has some cooling effect, and the crust is, of course farthest from the core.
