Unit 1 - Earth's History Review!

List the 7 layers of the Earth from MOST dense to LEAST dense.

• Inner core, Outer core, Mantle, Oceanic crust, Continental crust

• Inner core, Outer core, Lower mantle, Middle mantle, Upper mantle, Oceanic crust, Continental crust

• Continental crust, Oceanic crust, Mantle, Outer core, Inner core

• Lithosphere, Asthenosphere, Mantle, Outer core, Inner core

How does density help form and organize the layers of the Earth?

• Most dense materials sunk to the center, least dense materials float.

• Most dense materials float, least dense materials sunk to the center.

• Density does not help form and organize the layers of the Earth.

• Asthenosphere

• Upper mantle

• Lithosphere

• Continental crust
