“The Earth’s lithosphere is thinner than its asthenosphere”, the statement correctly compares the thicknesses of Earth’s layers
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The outermost parts of the Earth composed of crust and a part of the upper mantle is termed as lithosphere. And asthenosphere is positioned below lithosphere. The bottom layer of lithosphere has the parts of the upper crust.
So the highly viscous and ductile region in the remaining part of the upper crust forms the asthenosphere below the lithosphere. The upper crust in the lithosphere region contain elastic properties while the upper crust in the asthenosphere is ductile in nature. Thus the statement that lithosphere is thinner than asthenosphere is true as it is located at the surface.
Answer:it is 3 just look at the middle numbers

Answer:
Explanation:
An atom is the smallest unit of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atoms (and there corresponding symbols) mentioned in the question are
Lithium ⇒ Li
Carbon ⇒ C
Nitrogen ⇒ N
Potassium ⇒ K
Oxygen ⇒ O
Iron ⇒ Fe
Chlorine ⇒ Cl
A compound is substance that contains two or more atoms that are chemically combined and can be represented with a chemical formula. The compounds (and there corresponding formula) mentioned in the question are
Water ⇒ H₂O
Edible salt (sodium chloride) ⇒ NaCl
Chalk (calcium carbonate) ⇒ CaCO₃
Lime (calcium oxide) ⇒ CaO
Iodides (such as sodium iodide and potassium iodide) ⇒ NaI and KI respectively
<span>The amount of dissolved salt in the liquid sample is measured and reported as salinity. The salinity is usually measured in parts per thousand (ppt). The salinity of ocean averages 35 ppt while that of the river averages 0.5 ppt or less. In other terms, the word salinity is the saltiness. </span>
A because A is the only answer
