    The document contains a 6 question quiz about the layers of the Earth - their composition, density, and properties. The questions ask about which layer is most dense (the inner core), that the crust floats on the mantle indicating it has lower density, and that the best model for the crust would be cardboard since it is solid yet less dense than the mantle, allowing it to float.
