The Mohorovicic Discontinuity, generally referred to as the Moho, where seismic waves increase in velocity.
What else can I help you with?
What two regions of the earth does the Moho discontinuity separate?
The Mohorovičić discontinuity (Moho) separates the Earth's crust from the underlying mantle. It is found beneath continents and beneath ocean basins.
What does the crust float on?
The crust rides or floats on the mantle. :)
What are the different layer of the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is divided into two layers: the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The crust includes the Earth's outermost layer that is divided into continental and oceanic crust. The upper part of the mantle beneath the crust is known as the asthenosphere.
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 are the 2 divisions of the crust?
The two divisions of Earth's crust are the continental crust and the oceanic crust. The continental crust is thicker and less dense, mainly composed of granite rocks, while the oceanic crust is thinner and denser, primarily made up of basalt rocks.
Does the mantle separate the crust and mantle?
No the Mantle seperates the crust and the outer core
Does a crust separate the crust and the mantle?
No, instead of another crust, the sometimes magnesium rich Mohorovičić discontinuity separates the crust from the iron rich mantle.
What two regions of the earth did the Moho discontinuity separate?
The Moho separates the crust and the mantle.
What boundaries separate the earth's crust with the upper mantle?
mohorocivic discontinuity or moho
What the crust and mantle don't have in common?
The crust is above the mantle and the mantle is below the crust
What two regions of the earth does the Moho discontinuity separate?
The Mohorovičić discontinuity (Moho) separates the Earth's crust from the underlying mantle. It is found beneath continents and beneath ocean basins.
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.
What are the different layer of the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is divided into two layers: the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The crust includes the Earth's outermost layer that is divided into continental and oceanic crust. The upper part of the mantle beneath the crust is known as the asthenosphere.
What is the coldest crust or the mantle?
The crust is much colder than the mantle.
Is the lithosphere in the mantle or crust?
uppermost part of the mantle and the crust together
