उत्तर

Mohorovicic discontinuity is found at about 8 km beneath the oceans and 32 km beneath the continents.

Explanation:

The Mohorovicic Discontinuity (Moho) marks the boundary between the Earth's crust and the mantle. It is located at about 8 km beneath the oceans and about 32 km beneath the continents. The Moho is deeper beneath the continents because the continental crust is thicker compared to the oceanic crust.
