Importance of lithosphere:-

  • Lithosphere is the topmost crust of the earth on which stand our continents and ocean basins.

  • The lithosphere has a thickness between 35to 50 km in the continental regions but becomes thin between 6 and 12 km under ocean beds.

  • In the high mountain region its thickness is estimated about 60km.

  • Lithosphere provide us forests, grasslands for grazing land for agriculture and human settlements and also rich source of minerals.
