Density is calculated by dividing these two variables

Mass and Volume

100

The variable on the x-axis

Independent Variable

100

The rigid outer layer of the Earth

The Lithosphere

200

The inner and outer core are composed of these two materials

Iron and Nickel

200

This layer of the atmosphere is located between 17-35km and contains the ozone layer

The Stratosphere

200

It is the density of water

1.0 g/ml  OR 1.0 g/cm3

200

The variable on the y-axis

Dependent Variable

Direct Relationship

300

This element makes up 66% of the hydrosphere by volume

Hydrogen

400

A pressure of 3 million atmospheres exists within this layer of the Earth

Outer Core

400

Temperature decreases with increasing altitude in these two atmospheric layers

Troposphere and Mesosphere
