1. How does the temperature change as you go from the surface towards the center of the Earth?THE TEMPERATURE CONTINUES TO INCREASE AS YOU GET CLOSER TO THE INNER CORE.
2. The three main layers that make up the Earth are the CRUST,MANTLE, AND CORE.
3. The CRUST is a layer of rock that forms the outer skin of the Earth.
4. Basalt is found on the OCEANIC CRUST .Granite is found on the CONTINENTAL CRUST.
5. What is the difference between the inner and outer core?
Inner Core-SOLID SPHERE OF IRON AND NICKEL - HOTTEST AREA
Outer Core-MOLTEN MATERIAL OF IRON AND NICKEL - NOT AS HOT
6. How do convection currents move inside the Earth?
CORRECT ANSWER A
a- hot materials rise, while cooler materials sink
b- hot materials sink, while cooler materials rise
c- hot materials move up or down, while cool materials move sideways.
7. Which layer of rock within the Earth’s interior is the thickest? MANTLE
8. Name the two parts of the mantle region
Upper most part=LITHOSPHERE
Lower part =ASTHENOSPHERE
