Five friends were talking about Earth's interior. They each had different ideas about what the inside of Earth was like. This is what they said:

Rudy: I think we would see layers. Most of the inside of Earth will be hot liquid.

Lizette: I think we would see layers. Most of the inside of Earth will be solid.

Zara: I think we would see three layers with a giant magnet in the center of Earth.

Mateo: I don't think there are layers. Earth is made up of rocks and dirt with hot liquid found in cracks.

Haliaka: I think we would see sections of solid and liquid Earth with gaps in between.

Who do you think has the best idea? Explain your thinking.

Ralph Price · Answer 1

Most of the layers inside of earth is solid.

Explanation:

Among the earth's interior,

Mantel is present up to 2900 km (it is solid). The liquid core is present just below the mantel, which is present up to 50 km, after the mantel. After the liquid core, the greater core is present, which is the solid core and its present up to 6378 km.

So, in the end, we can say that most of the earth's interior is solid.

So, Lizette said the right one.
