Summary
The Earth is divided into
Three Main Layers
: the crust, which is the
Outermost solid shell
; the mantle, a
Semi-solid layer
Beneath the crust
that
Flows slowly
over
Geological Time
; and the core, which is further divided into a
Liquid outer core
and a
Solid inner core
. These layers are distinguished by their
Chemical Composition
and
Physical Properties
, playing crucial roles in Earth's
Geological Activities
, including
Plate Tectonics
and the
Generation of the magnetic field
.
