LAYERS OF THE EARTH
I’M THE MAP… I’M THE MAP!
ITINERARY: THE EARTH’SLAYERS
• Crust - The Earth's outermost surface is
called the crust. The crust is relatively
light and brittle. Most earthquakes occur
withinthe crust.
• Mantle - The mantle is relatively flexible
soit flows insteadof fracturing.
• Outer core –Fluidlayer that contains
iron. Whenit flows it generates the
Earth’s magnetic field.
• Inner core – Solidinnermost layer of the
Earth.
CRUST
Thecrust is typically about
25miles thick beneath
continents, andabout 6.5
miles thick beneathoceans..
Most earthquakes occur
withinthecrust. Thecrust in

THE CRUST
* The Earth’s crust is like
the skin of an apple. It is
very thin compared to
the other three layers.
*The crust makes up 1% of
the Earth.
* The crust of the Earth is
broken into many pieces
called plates.
TWOTYPESOFCRUST
• Oceanic (very
dense, made of
basalt)
• Continental
(less dense,
madeof
granite)
OCEANICANDCONTINENTALCRUST
THE MANTLE
• The mantle is the layer
below the crust.
• The mantle is the
largest layer of the
Earth.
• The mantle is divided
into two regions: the
upper and lower
sections.

outer core andasolid
inner core. Because the
outer corecontainsiron,
whenit flowsit generates
amagneAtic field. Thisis
thesourceof theEarth's
magneticfield.
OUTER CORE
* The core of the
Earth is like a ball
of very hot metals.
* The outer core is
liquid.
* The outer core is
made up of iron
and is very dense.
INNER CORE
* The inner core of the
Earth has temperatures
and pressures so great
that the metals are
squeezed together and
are not able to move.
* The inner core is a
solid.
