The two types of crust that make up this layer
What are oceanic and continental?
Description of the mantle
What is the thickest/largest level?
In between these two layers
What is between the inner core and mantle?
Composition of the inner core
What is a solid ball of metal?
24 hours
How long does it take the Earth to rotate once?
The crust is mostly made up of these
What is magma?
Composition of the outer core

How long it takes Earth to do one complete revolution?
The crust is divided into these
What are tectonic plates?
The amount of volume the mantle takes up
What is about 83%?

What is Earth's magnetic field?
Does this to the outer core
What is it melts everything?
the seasons
What a revolution causes?
This crust is denser, thinner, and younger.
What is the oceanic crust?
The solid part of the upper mantle
What is the asthenosphere?
the size of the outer core
What is the second largest layer?
The movement of the inner core
What is the inner core spins at a rate faster than the Earth's rotation?
day and night
What rotation causes?
This is the solid outer section of the Earth, which includes the crust (rocky layer)
What is the lithosphere?
The process by which intense heat causes the rocks to rise and then cool and sink.
What is convection?
the type of layer - composition
What is liquid iron and nickel?
the type of layer - composition
What is solid iron and nickel?
this makes the continents move
What is plate tectonics?
