Answer:
The solidification of the magma ocean, upon which the process of the formation of the lithosphere is dependent, most likely began with the formation of a forsterite (or forsterite-rich peridotite) slab at a depth of about 100 km followed by the solidification of Earth’s surface, cooled by heat radiation from the surface and the cooling effect of the early atmosphere.
