The document summarizes the rock cycle and key components of Earth's structure. It describes how igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks form through processes like cooling of magma, weathering and transport, lithification under pressure, and transformation under heat and pressure. It also outlines Earth's inner core, outer core, mantle and crust layers, their compositions and properties.

26. Earth’s Internal structure Core (2200 mi) Mantle (1800 mi) Crust (5-25 mi)

27. Inner Core Mantle Crust Outer core solid (due to very high pressure) composed of Fe & Ni 7000-9000 °F

28. Outer Core molten composed of Fe & Ni 5400-7000 °F generates magnetic field due to convective flow Inner core Mantle Crust

29. Mantle Inner core Crust Outer core majority of Earth’s volume composed of oxides of Fe, Si, and Mg data from volcanic material & experimental work - 3300- 5100 °F - divided into 3 zones

30. 3 mantle zones Uppermost mantle - rigid Asthenosphere - plastic - moves indpt of lithosphere Mesosphere - rigid Mesosphere Asthenosphere Uppermost mantle lithosphere mantle

31. Crust thin, brittle layer contains continents & ocean basins abundant elements: O, Si, Al, and Fe Moho = discontinuity between crust & mantle Lithosphere = crust + uppermost mantle Mantle Outer core Inner core

32. Continental vs. oceanic crust Continental Oceanic Thickness thick thin Composition granite basalt Elements Si & Al Fe & Mg Density low high Age old young

33. Isostasy maintenance of hydrostatic equilibrium of crust -AKA buoyancy adding weight to crust = sink removing weight = rise
