GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The lithosphere is the solid, outer part of Earth. The lithosphere includes the brittle upper portion of the mantle and the crust, the outermost layers of Earth’s structure. It is bounded by the atmosphere above and the asthenosphere (another part of the upper mantle) below.

Detailed explanation-2: -And remember that the lithosphere is composed of the earth’s crust and the uppermost part of the mantle. The 3 main layers are the core, mantle and crust.

Detailed explanation-3: -They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core. Let’s take a look at them and see what they have going on. Like all terrestrial planets, the Earth’s interior is differentiated.
