thinnest layer, made of solid rock, contains mountains, rocks, water, soil, land features
What is crust?
made of crust and upper mantle; means “stone” in greek
What is lithosphere?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
What are crust rocks?
means “weak” ball in Greek
What is Asthenosphere?
consist of hot, plastic rock; the lithosphere floats on top of it
What is astehnosphere?
form of heat that acts like a current when heat travels
What is convection?
only liquid layer made of liquid iron and nickel; creates Earth’s magnetic field
What is outer core?
enter of the Earth, made of solid iron and nickel
What is inner core?
the force that cause intense pressure at the center with heavy metal iron and nickel
ayers based on the state of matter in solid and liquid for lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, and inner core

What is tectonic?
the layer of the Earth that moved due to underlying hot mantle convection
What is lithosphere?

What is divergent boundary?
where plates slide past each other
What is transform boundary?
Volcano activity are located at these plate boundaries
What is Ring of Fire?
the amount of space an object takes up (i.e. liquid heated to gas will take up more space than before)
What is volume?
where plate boundaries meet and push against each other
What is convergent boundary?
