Isotasy is the balance between what two forces?
Isostasy is the balance between the buoyant force of the lithosphere floating on the denser underlying mantle and the gravitational force pulling the lithosphere downwards.
What is definition of isotasy?
Isotasy is suppose to be spelt as Isostasy which means:The equilibrium that exists between parts of the earth's crust, which behaves as if it consists of blocks floating on the underlying mantle, rising if material (such as an ice cap) is removed and sinking if material is deposited.

Where is the earth's crust the thinnest on land?
The Earth's crust is thinnest on land at divergent plate boundaries, such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge or East African Rift. These are areas where tectonic plates are moving away from each other, causing the crust to stretch and thin.
