Presentation on theme: " Inner core, Outer core, Mantle asthenosphere, lithosphere, crust,"— Presentation transcript:

1

2  Inner core, Outer core, Mantle asthenosphere, lithosphere, crust,

3  The spinning (convection currents, spiraling) of the outer core.

4  Temperature and pressure

5  Igneous Rocks ◦ Basalt: oceanic ◦ Granite: continental

6

7  Information from seismic waves. (Earthquakes)

8  The outer core, the mantle, & Asthenosphere

9  Both are made of iron. The inner core is solid, and the outer core is liquid.

10  Thin rocky outer layer of the Earth contained in the lithosphere.  Oceanic:Basalt  Continental: Granite  Brittle, breakable, Solid

11  The thick hot melted layer of the Earth. Contains the Asthenosphere and a small portion of the lithosphere.

12  Metallic layer of the earth which is liquid.  Fast Spinning convection current in this layer causes the Magnetic Field

13  Metallic, dense and solid inner layer of the Earth. Contains solid iron

14  “Plastic” layer of the Earth found in the upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere floats on it.

15  Contains the crust and the solid uppermost part of the mantle.
