Differentiate Continental Plate And Oceanic Plate

Differentiate continental plate and oceanic plate

Answer:

Both oceanic crust and continental crust are less dense than the mantle, but oceanic crustis denser than continental crust. This is partly why the continents are at a higher elevation than the ocean floor. ... The oceanic crust is formed by partial melting of the mantle at mid-ocean ridges.
