Answer:
The less-dense continental crust has greater buoyancy, causing it to float much higher in the mantle. Its average elevation above sea level is 840 metres (2,750 feet), while the average depth of oceanic crust is 3,790 metres (12,400 feet).
Explanation:
Ocean crust, which covers most of the planet's surface, lies mostly between about 3 and 5 kilometers (2 and 3 miles) depth, while continental crust, including the offshore continental shelves, averages less than 1 kilometer (0.6 miles) above sea level.
