Is the crust and the top layer of the mantle called lithosphere?
Yes the crust and the top layer of the mantle is called Lithosphere.
What is the layer of the earth on top of the mantle?
The crust.
What part of the earth is the crust and the very top of the mantle?
The crust and the very top of the mantle make up the lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth. The lithosphere is divided into several tectonic plates that move and interact with each other at plate boundaries.
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
What is the top crust layer of earth called?
The top crust layer of the Earth is called the crust.
What is the name of the mechanical that is composed of the crust and the top portion of the mantle?
The lithosphere.
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.
What is the name of the mechanical layer that is composed of the crust and the top portion of the mantle?
The lithosphere.
Is the crust and the top layer of the mantle called lithosphere?
Yes the crust and the top layer of the mantle is called Lithosphere.
The top part of the mantle and the crust above it form the hydrosphere or lithosphere?
The top part of the mantle and the crust above it form into lithosphere.
What is the name of earths outer layer?
The crust is the top layer we live on, followed by the mantle and then the core.
Why does the earth's crust sit on top of the mantel?
The outer core is composed of molten iron and nickel, which is much denser than the material that composes the mantle. So, in a sense, the mantle floats on top of the core just as the crust floats on top of the mantle.
What is the layer of the earth on top of the mantle?
The crust.
The crust is what layer?
The crust is the top layer. Then there is the outer mantle, inner mantle, outer core, and inner core.
Is mantle and crust a layer of earth?
yes, it is and so is the core. the crust is on top, the mantle is next , and the core is the center.
What is the name of top most crust of earth?
The name of the topmost crust of the Earth is the "lithosphere." It includes the Earth's crust and part of the upper mantle and is divided into several large tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
What part of the earth is the crust and the very top of the mantle?
The crust and the very top of the mantle make up the lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth. The lithosphere is divided into several tectonic plates that move and interact with each other at plate boundaries.
