The condition of equilibrium that results in the displacement of the mantle by the continental and oceanic crust is known as isostasy.
Answer (2)
Isostasy is the condition of equilibrium that results in the displacement of the mantle by the continental and oceanic crust.
Isostasy is the equilibrium state of the Earth's crust floating on the mantle due to gravitational forces. It involves the adjustments of the continental and oceanic crust in response to changes in weight from erosion or sediment accumulation. This concept helps explain various geological processes and landforms.
