Answer:
The lithosphere is the outer solid shell of the Earth. As the cooling surface layer of the Earth’s convective system, the lithosphere thickens over time. It is fragmented into relatively strong pieces or plates, which move independently relative to one another. These lithospheric movements are described as plate tectonics. The lithosphere includes the crust and, below, the uppermost layer of the mantle; it floats on the weaker asthenosphere.
