The inner core:

The Inner Core is the final layer of the Earth. It is a

solid ball made of metal. To learn about what metal
the Inner Core is made of, read this section about
the Inner Core. You can also learn how hot the
Inner Core is, how thick it is and some interesting
facts about the Inner Core.

Thickness
The Inner Core is about 1250 km thick and is the
second smallest layer of the Earth. Although it is
one of the smallest, the Inner Core is also the
hottest layer.
Composition
The Inner Core is a solid ball composed of an
element named NiFe. Ni for Nickel and Fe for
Ferrum also known as Iron.
Temperature
The Inner Core is about 5000-6000
degrees Celsius. It melts all metal ores in the Outer
Core causing it to turn into liquid magma.
 The outer core:
The Outer Core is the second to last layer of the Earth. It is a
magma like liquid layer that surrounds the Inner Core and creates
Earth's magnetic field. In this section you will learn about how
Earth's magnetic field is created, how hot it is, how thick the Outer
Core is and a few interesting facts about the Outer Core.

Temperature
The Outer Core is about 4000-5000 degrees Celsius. The Inner
Core is so hot it causes all the metal in the Outer Core to melt into
liquid magma.
Composition
The Outer Core is composed of iron and some nickel. There is
very few rocks and iron and nickel ore left in the Outer Core
because of the Inner Core melting all the metal into liquid magma
Thickness
The Outer Core is about 2200 km thick. It is the second largest
layer and made entirely out of liquid magma.
Magnetism
Because the outer core moves around the inner core, Earth's
magnetism is created.
 The mantle:
The Mantle is the second layer of the Earth. It is the biggest and
takes up 84 percent of the Earth. In this section you will learn and
more about how hot the mantle is, what it is
made of, and someinteresting facts about the Mantle.

Sections
The mantle is divided into two sections. The Asthenosphere,
the bottom layer of the mantle made of plastic like fluid
and The Lithosphere the top part of the mantle made of a cold
dense rock.
Temperature
The average temperature of the mantle is 3000° Celsius. The
temperature of the mantle will become much hotter as you get
closer to the Inner Core
Composition
The mantle is composed of silicates of iron and magnesium,
sulphides and oxides of silicon and magnesium.
Thickness
The mantle is about 2900 km thick. It is the largest layer of the
Earth, taking up 84% of the Earth.
Convection Currents
Convection currents happen inside the mantle and are caused
by the continuous circular motion of rocks in the lithosphere being
pushed down by hot molasses liquid from the asthenosphere.
The rocks then melt and float up as molasses liquid because it is
less dense and the rocks float down because it is more dense.
The crust:
The Crust is our home, yet it is also not our home. The very top
of the crust is where we live on but deeper down it is all dense
rock and metal ores. In this section you will learn about what the
Crust is made of, the temperature, the thickness and a few
interesting facts about the crust.

Composition
The Crust is composed of mainly granite, basalt, and
diorite rocks
Thickness
The Crust's thickness can vary from wherever you are. From a
continent to the edge of the crust is about 60 km. From the
bottom of the ocean to the edge of the crust is about 10 km.
Temperature
The Crust's temperature is different throughout the entire crust.
The temperatures start at about 200° Celsius and can rise up to
400° Celsius.
The Always Moving Layer
In the Mantle there are Convection Currents which will be defined
more in The Mantle section. These huge currents are causing the
crust to constantly move. These movements will cause
earthquakes and volcanoes to erupt. The moving of the crust is
also known as The Theory Of Plate Tectonics.
