This layer of the earth causes they continents to move in sections called tectonic plates. Since it is slightly more flexible than the crust. This layer of the earth is called the: crust lithosphere asthenosphere lower mantle These two layers work together to create an invisible magnetic field around the earth. One layer is liquid and the other layer is solid. Both are made of iron and nickel. These two layers of the earth are the: asthenosphere, lower mantle crust, lithosphere outer core, inner core peanut butter, jelly This layer of the earth is liquid and surrounds a solid metal core. This layer of the earth is the: crust outer core inner core atmosphere This layer of the earth is made of very hot, "deformable" rock. This layer of the earth is the: inner core crust lower mantle asthenosphere This is the thinnest layer of the earth. inner core crust lower mantle asthenosphere If someone were to use a boiled egg to represent the layers of the earth, why would the shell be a good example of the crust? Because it is white. Because it's surface is not perfectly smooth. Because it is made of the same material. Because the shell is the thinnest and outermost part of the egg, just like the crust of the earth. True of False The lithosphere is thicker than the crust. True False |
