The geology of planet Earth: MODEL

Crust

• Description: The thin, solid, rocky outer layer of the Earth. 
• Composition: Composed of various solid rocks and minerals. 
• Subdivisions: Divided into oceanic crust (denser, younger) and continental crust (less dense, older). 
• Significance: The layer we live on and where most geological processes occur. 

Mantle

• Description: The thickest layer of the Earth, located beneath the crust.
• Composition: Made of dense rocks that can flow slowly due to heat and pressure. 
• Movement: Includes the asthenosphere, a semi-plastic layer that allows tectonic plates to move. 
• Significance: The slow movement within the mantle drives tectonic plate activity.

Outer Core 

• Description: A liquid layer of metal, primarily iron and nickel.
• State: Molten due to extremely high temperatures.
• Significance: The movement of this liquid iron generates Earth's magnetic field.

Inner Core

• Description: A solid, dense ball of iron at the Earth's center. 
• State: Solid, despite its high temperature, due to the overwhelming pressure at the planet's core. 
• Significance: The innermost layer of the Earth, influencing its overall structure and behavior.
