Answer: because every time something eats something 10% of the energy is passed on so it starts as 100% with plants photosynthesizing then the herbivore gets 10% of that energy. The carnivore that eats the herbivore gets 10% of the herbivore’s energy so by the time it gets to the top of the pyramid there is less and less energy to consume.
The Earth's lithosphere is 100km while astehnosphere is 660km so this statement stands true.
Other statements are false like Earth’s mantle is thinner than its oceanic crust as Earth’s mantle is around 3k km while its oceanic crust is just 5km.
Also, Earth’s outer core is thicker than its mantle and Earth’s continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere is false as well.
