Answer 1

Answer: All continental crust is made of granite.

Step-by-step explanation:

The earth consists of multiple layers and the lighter particles are found on the upper surface and the heavier particles tend to settle in the base of the earth.

The continental crust is layer of earth which is composed of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks they usually forms the continents and the areas of the shallow seabed.

This area is base and usually consists of the heavier particles which is usually made of granite. It also contains volcanic lava and rock called basalt. Basalt and granite are heavier particles so they make continental crust.
