Presentation transcript:

 Inner core, Outer core, Mantle asthenosphere, lithosphere, crust,

 The spinning (convection currents, spiraling) of the outer core.

 Temperature and pressure

 Igneous Rocks ◦ Basalt: oceanic ◦ Granite: continental

 Information from seismic waves. (Earthquakes)

 The outer core, the mantle, & Asthenosphere

 Both are made of iron. The inner core is solid, and the outer core is liquid.

 Thin rocky outer layer of the Earth contained in the lithosphere.  Oceanic:Basalt  Continental: Granite  Brittle, breakable, Solid

 The thick hot melted layer of the Earth. Contains the Asthenosphere and a small portion of the lithosphere.

 Metallic layer of the earth which is liquid.  Fast Spinning convection current in this layer causes the Magnetic Field

 Metallic, dense and solid inner layer of the Earth. Contains solid iron

 “Plastic” layer of the Earth found in the upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere floats on it.

 Contains the crust and the solid uppermost part of the mantle.
