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.

12. Unlike many retellings of the myth of Icarus, this poem
Mandarinka [93]

Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about the poem "Icarus's Flight". it is necessary that you always provide all the necessary information for your question to be answered as you deserve.

Answer:

The poem states that Icarus did the right thing because he used his skills to try to achieve his desire, instead of just wondering if "would it have worked?"

Explanation:

In short, we can say that the poem states that Icarus did the right thing, because he allowed himself to try. He had a desire, which he knew was risky, but he preferred to use his skills, rather than just theorizing about what might or might not happen. Icarus had a desire and he challenged himself and went after it, instead of just whining and questioning.

The poem shows, in the eighteenth line, that even in the face of possible failure, Icarus' experience would allow him to know himself better, knowing his weaknesses and strengths.
