NGSS.MS-PS4-2

• Defined by the general density of the rocks and the abundance of elements found in each layer.

• The deeper you go into the center of the Earth the more dense these rocks become.

• Crust, Mantle, Core

• Compositional Layers of the Earth

• Mechanical Layers of the Earth

• Defined by their state of matter and described as being a rigid solid, a liquid, or a putty like solid.

• The state of matter differences allow for convection currents and the movement of the tectonic plates.

• Layers: Lithosphere (rigid solid), Asthenosphere (putty like solid), Lower mantle (rigid solid), Outer core (liquid), Inner core (rigid solid).

• Compositional Layers of Earth

• Mechanical Layers of Earth

The study of the movement of Earth's plates

• lithosphere

• plate tectonics

• asthenosphere

When trying to identify a mineral, why is the streak of a mineral more reliable than the mineral's color?

• not all minerals have color

• the color of a mineral will always change

• some minerals look one color, but the streak shows the tru color of the minerals

What would be the best label for point A?

• Lithosphere

• Asthenosphere

• Smithosphere
