Earth's crust is Earth's hard outer layer. Below the crust is the mantle. The upper part of the mantle is made up of peridotite, a rock denser than rocks common in the crust. The crust and the upper mantle make up the lithosphere. The lithosphere is broken up into tectonic plates that can move

hii viewer here's ur answer to the given question

The crust is compositionally distinct outermost rocky layer of the Earth. What is the crust made of? The answer to this question depends on whether we want to know which chemical elements, minerals or rock types it is made of. It may be surprising but about a dozen chemical elements, minerals, or rock types is all that it takes to describe approximately 99% of the crust. This article is about these really common and maybe some a little less common but noteworthy building blocks of the ground beneath our feet.
Common rocks in the crust. Igneous rocks in the first row: granite, gabbro, basalt. Metamorphic rocks in the second row: gneiss, schist, amphibolite. Sedimentary rocks in the third row: sandstone, shale, limestone
The most common chemical elements in the crust are oxygen (46.6%), silicon (27.7), aluminum (8.1), 

hope ull get the answer and mark as brainliest one
