Before comparing and contrasting these layers of Earth, we first define what lithosphere and asthenosphere are.
Lithosphere primarily consists of the outermost layers of the Earth, which are the crust and the uppermost portion of the mantle. Simply, the ground you stepped on is part of earth's lithosphere. On the other hand, asthenosphere comprises of hot and partially molten rock just located at the upper portion of the mantle but just below the lithosphere. Both have similarities and differences, which are as follows:
SIMILARITIES:
- Both are the passageways of earthquakes P-waves (Primary waves) just before it reaches the earth's surface.
- Both are made of the same material (Silicon oxide rocks, which are rich in iron and magnesium)
DIFFERENCES:
- Rocks in lithosphere can bend (it deforms, resulting in fault formations), however, rocks in the asthenosphere, not only bend but also flow (plastic in nature).
- Lithosphere has relatively low temperatures compared to asthenosphere.
- Due to its depth, pressure against rocks in asthenosphere is comparatively higher compared to lithosphere.
Copper(I) chloride, commonly called cuprous chloride, is the lower chloride of copper, with the formula CuCl.
Answer:
Radiation is characterized as the Emission and propogation of Energy(atomic and subatomic particles) in the form of Electromegnetic (Electric and Magnetic lines) waves through space or any medium.
Explanation:
These radiation can be in the form of heat rays , light rays, Xrays or UV rays.
Radition is bascically flow or movement of atomic particles or particularly energy in different forms. It is usually transmitted from a source to the destination for transferring Energy.
