Earths crust is the outer shell of our planet. The Earth has two types of crust. Continental crust contains igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks that covers the continents. Oceanic crust contains igneous basalt rocks derived from the upper mantle that cover the all the ocean floors. The igneous rocks are covered with sediments carried into the oceans from large rivers like the Amazon and Mississippi Rivers.

∙ 12y agothe two types of crust are Sial and Sima
Sial consists of silicon and aluminum and build up land surface due to less density
while Sima consists of silicon and magnesium build up the ocean floor due to higher density

∙ 14y agoEarth's crust consists of two different parts: Oceanic and Continental crust. Oceanic crust is underneath the oceans and it is denser than Continental crust, and the Continental crust is much thicker than Oceanic crust. I don't know what exactly you are asking because these are the only two parts to the Earth's crust.

What is meant by continental crust and oceanic crust?
They are two different types of crust. Continental crust is heavier than Oceanic crust, so when the two collide, the Continental crust 'subducts' under the Oceanic Crust. 'Crust' referring to the tectonic plates, the surface of the Earth we stand on.
