It is rock.
Some of the most abundant elements found in Earth's crust include oxygen, silicon, aluminum, and iron. These elements make up a significant portion of the minerals and rocks that form the Earth's outermost layer.
Metamorphic rocks are created from intense heat and pressure being applied to an existing rock. The existing rock is called the protolith. They can also be formed from lava being poured over the top of the earth's surface, where rocks lay underneath. Metamorphic rocks make up a large part of our earths crust. It is around 40-60% of the earts crust.
The main mineral that makes up the Earth's crust is called feldspar. Feldspar is a group of rock-forming minerals that make up about 60% of the Earth's crust by weight.

the crust and the core
the answer to this question is literally earth's crust.
Scientists call the giant puzzle pieces that make up the Earth's surface "tectonic plates." These plates are large sections of the Earth's crust that float on the semi-fluid layer below and interact with each other, causing phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Sounds like a homework question...
crust and upper mantle
17 only
because when it acts on the surface it stretches the rock to make craters or " dents" on the crust.
How many elements make up the earths crust? The earths crust is made of many layers..You can find clay and very good soil. But that is if you dig a little way down. the earth has a center which is called the core of the earth. Inside this core is lava and is incredibly hot. Like the sun but not as hot..
The three parts that make up the Earths mantle are the crust, core, and mantle.
Silicon, oxygen and nitrogen
Si, O, and Ca.
It is rock.
