Earth's crust is a thin shell on the outside of Earth, accounting for less than 1% of Earth's volume. ... The crust lies on top of the mantle, a configuration that is stable because the upper mantle is made of peridotite and so is significantly denser than the crust.
Explanation:
A crust is the outermost layer of a planet. The crust of the Earth is composed of a great variety of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. The crust is underlain by the mantle. The upper part of the mantle is composed mostly of peridotite, a rock denser than rocks common in the overlying crust.
After the late accretion of the Earth, heat retained by the Earth resulted in the complete melting of the upper mantle, which formed a magma ocean that covered the surface of the Earth. As the Earth cooled, the magma ocean crystallised to form a widespread crust
solid rocks
The crust is made of solid rocks and minerals. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is also mostly solid rocks and minerals, but punctuated by malleable areas of semi-solid magma. At the center of the Earth is a hot, dense metal core.
Class 7
The earth's crust is made up of various types of rocks. There are three major types of rocks: igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks. Minerals are naturally occurring substances which have certain physical properties and definite chemical composition
Class 9
The crust consists of majority of, silica and aluminium and is called 'SIAL', mantle is called SIMA due to the majority of silica and magnesium and is called SIMA, which makes the bed of oceans and the core is called NIFE with excess of Nickel and Iron (Ni + Fe).
class 3
Earth has three layers: the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is made of solid rocks and minerals. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is also mostly solid rocks and minerals, but punctuated by malleable areas of semi-solid magma. At the center of the Earth is a hot, dense metal core
