The Earth is divided into three main layers - the crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the solid outermost layer that varies in thickness from 5 to 25 miles thick and has a cool temperature. Underneath the crust is the mantle, the thickest layer at around 1800 miles thick with a hot and solid but plastic texture. The innermost layer is the core which is divided into the solid inner core and liquid outer core with very hot temperatures.

2. ❖ The crust covers the entire surface of
earth, even underneath the oceans
❖The crust floats on top of the second
layer of Earth, the mantle
❖ Beneath the mantle is the core of
Earth
Earth is divided into 3 layers
that vary in thickness, texture,
and temperature:
