Explanation:

13.

The Earth's crust and upper mantle together form the lithosphere, which is the rigid outer layer of the Earth.

All the water on Earth including oceans, lakes, rivers, and groundwater is collectively known as the hydrosphere.

The three types of plate boundaries are divergent (plates move apart), convergent (plates move towards each other), and transform (plates slide past each other). Divergent boundaries occur at mid - ocean ridges where new crust is formed. Convergent boundaries can lead to subduction (one plate goes under another) or mountain - building. Transform boundaries are seen at places like the San Andreas Fault.

lithosphere
