Composition ( what it is made of)
Crust Mantle Core
The Earth is divided into three layers based upon the material it contains.
The Crust The comparatively thin outer shell of the Earth. Approximately 40 km thick. Two parts- continental crust, oceanic crust. As silica and alumina are the chief contents, the continental crust is also known
as SIAL. As silica and magnesium are the chief
contents, the oceanic crust is also known as SIMA
Oceanic and continental crust
Oceanic crust is thin but very dense.
The Mantle Located beneath the crust. Extends up 2900 km from the the crust. Tow parts- upper mantle, lower mantle. The upper mantle, made up silicon compounds, is in a solid state. The lower mantle, located beneath the
upper mantle, is in a semi-liquid state.
The Core Central part of the Earth. From 2900 km to 6371km. Two parts- outer core, inner core Due to the high pressure prevailing at the centre, the inner core is in a solid state. The materials in the outer core are in a
molten state. It is mainly made up of the minerals nickel
(Ni) and iron (Fe), it is also known as NIFE.
A new way to divide the Earth
The Earth is also divided up into layers based upon the physical properties of each layer. Lithosphere Asthenosphere Mesosphere Outer core Inner core
Physical structure of the Earth ( 5 Layers )
Lithosphere :- Rigid outer layer ( crust and part of the mantle). Asthenosphere :- Soil rock that flows slowly, found below lithosphere like frosting part of the mantle . Mesosphere :- Middle layer, part of the mantle very rigid magma. Outer core :- Liquid layer. Inner core :- Solid, very dense.
Tectonic plates
Earth’s crust is broken into about 19 pieces. The plates move on top of the
asthenosphere.
