Question

match the following
thinner, more dense, located under oceans and seas, composed mostly of basalt, generally younger than continental crust
boundary where two tectonic plates meet
thicker, less dense, forms landmasses, composed mostly of granite, generally older than oceanic crust
continental crust
oceanic crust
plate boundary

Explanation:

Each description is matched to the geological term it defines based on key characteristics of Earth's crust and tectonic features.

Answer:

• thinner, more dense, located under oceans and seas, composed mostly of basalt, generally younger than continental crust → Oceanic crust
• Boundary where two tectonic plates meet → Plate boundary
• thicker, less dense, forms landmasses, composed mostly of granite, generally older than oceanic crust → Continental crust
