It's helpful to remember that "crust" is both a general term and a specific layer of the Earth. Here's a breakdown:
* Crust: The outermost solid layer of the Earth, composed of relatively light, rigid rocks.
* Continental Crust: The thicker, less dense crust that makes up the continents.
* Oceanic Crust: The thinner, denser crust that makes up the ocean floor.
Let me know if you have any more questions about the Earth's layers!
