Layers of Earth Review

What are the layers of the Earth?

• Crust, lithosphere, asthenosphere, mantle, outer core, inner core.

• Sky, Land, mantle, outer core, inner core.

• Crust, lithosphere, asthenosphere, mantle,

• The Earth doesn't have layers.

How does convection occur within the interior of Earth?

• there are not convection currents in the Earth

• The inner and outer core heats the mantle that falls to the crust and then cools rising back down to the core creating a current.

• The inner and outer core heats the mantle that rises to the crust and then cools falling back down to the core creating a current.
