Layers of the Earth

oceanic crust

inner core

outer core

mantle

Solar winds attack our atmosphere.

The iron material in both create a magnetic field.

The heat rising creates convection currents.

Convection currents created cause the movement of plates on the surface.

Solar winds would destroy our atmosphere.

Our atmosphere would be unchanged.

The heat from the outer core would create convection currents

Convection currents created cause the movement of plates on the surface.

Solar winds destroy our atmosphere.

The iron material in the inner and outer cores create a magnetic field.

The heat rising from the lower mantle and outer core creates convection currents.

Convection currents created cause the movement of plates on the surface.

It contains mostly hot, molten lava.

It contains mostly oxygen and large amounts of water.

It contains mostly iron with significant amounts of nickle.

It contains mostly nitrogen with small amounts of aluminum.
