The earth's solid core is known as the lithosphere. It is made up of three primary parts or layers:

Core

Mantle

Crust

  • The crust and upper mantle make up the stiff, outermost layer of the Earth's rocks and minerals, or lithosphere.
  • The phrase "lithosphere," which refers to the Earth's basic form, is derived from the Greek words litho, which means "stone," and "sphere."
  • Thus, the Earth is enclosed by a sphere made of rocks and minerals.
  • The whole crust as well as the upper mantle make up the lithosphere, which is the Earth's outermost layer.
  • The atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere form the lithosphere's outer boundary since it is the outermost layer.
  • The asthenosphere, a mantle layer that resembles plastic on which the lithosphere "floats," is the lithosphere's inner border.
