A continent is a large land mass and its surrounding shallow continental shelf. Both are composed primarily of granite, which is lighter than the liquid mantle of the Earth and therefore floats upon it like cork on water.

Granite would be the correct answer but i see you don't have that there, Lithosphere i would say may be the right answer. or this

The continents are made out of relatively brittle rock called the "Crust"
