Question

what is another term for the earth’s crust? the lithosphere the atmosphere the hydrosphere the exosphere

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• The lithosphere includes the Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle, so it can be another term for the crust (in a broader sense related to the solid outer layer).
• The atmosphere is the gaseous layer around Earth, not related to the crust.
• The hydrosphere refers to all water on Earth, not the crust.
• The exosphere is the outermost layer of the atmosphere, not related to the crust.

Answer:

A. the lithosphere
