Earth's crust is composed of multiple tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid mantle below, while the moon's crust is one solid, unbroken layer, with no tectonic activity. Earth's crust is richer in elements like silicon and oxygen, while the moon's crust is mostly made up of different types of rock, such as basalt and anorthosite.
