Lithosphere

13 major plates

Asthenosphere

Explanation:

The surface or lithosphere of the earth is broken into about 7 major plates that floats on the liquid asthenosphere.

The analogy above describes the theory behind plate tectonics.

  • The crust and the rigid part of the upper mantle forms the lithosphere.
  • The lithosphere is broken down into series of pieces called plates.
  • There about 13 plates on earth surface.
  • The rigid plates moves on the weak asthenosphere below as a result of convection currents.

How to zoos affect the nitrogen cycle
SpyIntel [72]
<span>As humans change the way we live on the planet, the way that nitrogen moves around the Earth also changes. Nitrogen atoms may seem small enough to be easily overlooked. We look right through the ones in the air, do we not? Yet recent changes in the nitrogen cycle are causing a very noticeable effect on natural environments and human health. Lakes are clogged with aquatic weeds. Dead zones have formed in areas of the oceans where animals can not survive. Air pollutants that contain nitrogen are decreasing air quality and greenhouse gases that contain nitrogen are becoming more common.</span>
