PPT-Earth Science Main Layers of the Earth:

Crust Mantle Core The Crust Hard solid and strong Cooler than other layers Thinner beneath the oceans and made of basalt Thicker beneath the continents and made of granite The Mantle Composed of two layers the upper mantle and lower mantle. On Monday and Tuesday…. We found the density of liquids and rocks. . We learned that denser materials sink, and lighter materials float.. We learned that granite is lighter than basalt and that iron is denser than both.. Density of rocks. 1) Find the mass of each rock . sample on the electric balance.. Record measurement in data table (. g. ). . 2)Pour 50 . mL. of water from beaker into the graduated cylinder. Use dropper to get the exact amount of 50 . 1.Mantle. 2.. Lithosphere. 3. Outer Core. 4. Inner Core. How compressional forces are caused. . Compressional / Destructive. (subduction zones) plate boundaries occur when an oceanic plate is forced under (or subducts) a continental plate . Describe the layers of the solid Earth, including the lithosphere, the hot . convecting. mantle, and the dense metallic liquid and solid cores. What properties can be used to describe the layers of the Earth?. S6E5 Minerals, Rocks & Earth’s Layers. 24. Which of the following statements are true?. A. As you go deeper into the Earth, pressure increases. B. As you go deeper into the Earth, temperature increases. Objectives. Describe the layers found within the earth.. Discuss the forces that change the earth’s surface.. Earth’s Layers. Inside our Earth. 3 layers: Crust, Mantle, and Core.. Core can be split up . https://. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQx2wLyagk4. . Essential Question:. How are layers of the Earth different from one another?. Standard:. S6E5a.
