and some of the other larger moons in our solar system have broadly similar layers to the Earth: rocky crust, rocky mantle, and metallic core. In detail, these layers look a bit different (for example, having different thicknesses, and different sub-layers within them) due to these bodies ...
The earths interior has a number of layers. The major layers are the crust, mantle and core. The core is divided into a liquid outer core and a solid inner core.

Understanding Earth’s Interior Before you can learn about plate tectonics, you need to know something about the layers that are found inside Earth. These layers are divided by composition into core, mantle, and crust or by mechanical properties into lithosphere and asthenosphere. Scientists use inf...
Earth’s Interior Layers of the Earth How much do you know about your planet? Text Book page numbers 80 - 87 True or False The Earth is made up of 3 layers. Answer: False 4 Layers The Crust is the thickest layer. The Inner Core is solid. Answer: False Mantle Answer: True The Mant...
The interior of the earth is not simply layered. Some of the layers, particularly the crust and lithosphere, are highly variable in thickness. The boundaries between layers are rough and irregular. Some layers penetrate other layers at certain places. Variations in the thickness of the earth’s...

Structure of earth’s interioris fundamentally divided into three layers –crust, mantle and core. Crust It is the outermost solid part of the earth, normally about 8-40 kms thick. It is brittle in nature. Nearly 1% of the earth’s volume and 0.5% of earth’s mass are made of the cr...
