While Maria was at the beach, she decided to go swimming. While she was in the water, she saw a motorboat in the distance. When Maria put her head under the water, she
discovered that the sound of the motorboat was louder. The next day, she asked her
incredibly amazing science teacher why this happened. What explanation did Maria's
incredibly amazing science teacher provide?

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.

cuz some people don't have enough food. that's why we need more ppl to donate food to the hungry.
