The is broken up into tectonic plates which make up the hard and rigid surface of the Earth.?
it's a lithosphere
What is the name of the outer layer of our planet that is broken up into a number of moving plates?
The Lithosphere.
What is rigid layer of earths surface made up of the crust and a part of the upper mantle?
the Lithosphere or Lithospheric Plates
What is earths lithosphere broken up into?
Tectonic Plates
Earths Litosphere Is Broken Into Separate Sections Called?
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 theory that earths lithosphere is broken into large sections that move is called?
Plate tectonics
What layer of the earth makes up earths plates?

What layers make up earths lithosphere?
crust and upper mantle
What are facts about Earth's lithosphere?
Facts about the Earths's lithosphere:The lithosphere includes the Earths's crust and upper mantle.it is broken into tectonic plates.The uppermost part of the lithosphere is known as the 'pedosphere'. This is the part that reacts to the atmosphere and biosphere through the soil forming process.there are two types of lithosphere - oceanic and continental.Oceanic lithosphere ranges between 50-100 km in thickness.Continental lithosphere ranges between 40 and 200 km in thickness.

Which process is currently accepted explanation of the movement of drifting continents?
the convection currents in the mantle under the earths curst is moving the broken plates in earths lithosphere causing the plates slide across the lithosphere. this process is called tectonics. (jon lay wrote this,)
What is the crust and the upper mantle are called?
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.
