In geological context the fairly solid and rocky surface of the Earth is formally referred to as the "crust", distinct from the mantle beneath it.
The part of Earth's rocky outer layer that makes up the landmasses is the what ?
The core of the earth is surrounded by the mantle.The earth's core is called the inner core. Just outside that is the outer core, and it is liquid. Outside the liquid outer core is the mantle.
Earth's thin rocky outer layer is called the crust. It is the outermost layer of the planet, consisting of solid rock and soil, and it varies in thickness. The crust supports all terrestrial life and is divided into continental and oceanic types, with the continental crust being thicker and less dense than the oceanic crust.
The planets closer to the sun tend to have rocky crust and dense cores.

The crust, which is subdivided into continental crust and oceanic crust.
The outer shell of the Earth is called the crust. The uppermost hard, rocky layer of the mantle is attached to the crust. Together they form a layer called the lithosphere, which constitute the structures known as lithospheric plates.

The rocky upper layer of the solid earth is called the crust.
The Earth's thin rocky outer layer is called the crust. It is divided into two types: the continental crust, which forms the continents, and the oceanic crust, which forms the ocean basins.
