1 Tuesday, February 09, 2016 Objective: YWBAT recognize and describe the layers of the Earth. Drill: The composition of the core is probably similar throughout. Why, then, is part of the core liquid and the rest solid? Homework Study WOW

2 Answer The inner core is extremely hot but the high pressure keeps the material in a solid state. The outer core has less pressure so the iron can stay in a liquid state.

3 Did you know…? The deepest hole ever drilled was 12,226 feet deep. It was difficult to drill deeper because liquid rock filled the hole.
