Question

if silicic rock is found in a core sample, what evidence does this provide about the rock’s location? its location is likely underneath an ocean or a mountain. its location is likely denser than earth’s lithosphere. its location likely has a consistency that changes from solid to liquid. its location likely contributes to the creation of earth’s magnetic field.

Explanation:

Silicic rocks are found in the crust as per the table. The crust is the outermost layer and is located underneath oceans and mountains. Other options are incorrect as the crust is not denser than the lithosphere (which includes the crust), the crust is solid - not changing from solid to liquid, and the core (not the crust) contributes to Earth's magnetic field.

Answer:

Its location is likely underneath an ocean or a mountain.
