- Back in the day...There was a Planet Called Earth
- And the Earth, which is made up of multiple layers
- I wish I knew more about what was beneath the surface...
- Today, kids are wanting to know more about what's beneath the surface of Earth.
- Kelly, here is what you need to know!
- First of all, There are multiple layers that basically compose of the Earth.
- Just another quick fact a little more than 47% of the crust consist of Oxygen
- The Crust occupies less than 1% of the Earth's Volume
- The Crust is the first layer, composed of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
- Next, is the Mantle. It is the thickest layer of the Earth extending down 2,890km. It makes up about 84% of mostly studied when it comes to seismology.
- What's the next layer Uncle?
- The outer core on the other hand, is actually more hot than the inner core, calculating at possible 10800 degrees fahrenheit. It is the site for vicious convection currents also.
- The final layer is the core, but there are two layers within the outer core itself: The inner core is EXTREMELY hot calculating at 9800 degrees fahrenheit with guesses that the inner core is growing at a slow steady pace
- Thank you for explaining Uncle.
- No Problem.
- Thanks to that Uncle. I now know the basics of the layers that make up the Earth.Thank you Uncle!.
- THE END.
