Here's Your Answer
Explanation:
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.

- The solid crust or the hard top part of the earth is called Lithosphere.
- The crust is made up of rocks and minerals and covered with a thick layer of soil.
- It is uneven and has high mountains, plateaus, plains and very deep basins.
- Many of these features are shaped by internal and external processes.
- The slow movements inside the earth lead to the formation of the crust.
- The sudden movements can damage and lead to the changes in land forms.
