ANSWER:

In the crust, the temperature changes faster with the depth.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As the depth increases, the temperature also increases because deep down the earth's temperatures are the highest.
  • The earth's crust is the outermost shell of the planet. The earth's crust takes up 1% of the volume of the earth.
  • It is also the top component of the lithosphere. In the crust, the temperature changes with the depth ranging between 500 degree Celsius to almost 1000 degree Celsius.
