<span>The continental crust is the layer of granitic, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks which form the continents and the areas of shallow seabed close to their shores,known as continental shelves. It is less dense than the material of the Earth's mantle and thus "floats" on top of it.

Answer:
Terrestrial planets
Explanation:
There are two types of planets:
- The inner planets or terrestrial planets
- The outer planets or Jovian planets.
The outer planets are gas giants and are made of huge mounds of gases. These planets are Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Saturn. They all have satellites revolving round them.
The terrestrial planets are small rock masses. They are mercury, venus, earth and mars. Earth has one satellites and Mars has two satellites.
The asteroid belt seperates the Jovian and terrestrial planets. Beyond the Jovian planets lies the Kuiper Belt Objects or KBOs.
The Equator is the imaginary line that encircles the Earth and is equidistant from the North and South Poles.
is about 55 miles at its narrowest point. so around 50 miles would be the answer.
