Basalt
Why are we drilling through Oceanic Crust to get to the mantle instead of Continental Crust?
Why are we drilling through Oceanic Crust to get to the mantle instead of Continental Crust?
Oceanic Crust is much thinner.
What are convection currents and what causes them?
What are convection currents and what causes them?
the flow that transfers heat within a fluid is called convection current. The heating and cooling of the fluid, changes in the fluid's density and the force of gravity combine to cause convection currents.
