Explanation: The asthenosphere exerts a buoyant force that pushes up against the lithosphere, and this force resists gravity. The theory of isostasy refers to an equilibrium in buoyancy between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
As viewed from the north pole star Polaris, Earth turns counterclockwise.
The North Pole, also known as the Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole, is the point in the Northern Hemisphere where Earth's axis of rotation meets its surface.
