Geosphere: any regions that make up earth and its atmosphere.
Earths systems: lithosphere" (land), "hydrosphere" (water), "biosphere" (living things), and "atmosphere" (air).
convection currents in the mantle: heated mantle material is shown rising from deep inside the mantle while cooler mantle material things creating a convection current
what do scientist use to understand earths interior?: seismic waves.
What is earths interior like?: thin, outer crust mantle liquid, outer core in a solid inner core.
What layer of earth is the most dense: the core
What is the difference between continental crust and oceanic crust?: Continental crust is four times thicker
What causes earths magnetic field?: The poles
What does earths magnetic field protect earth from :It protects earth from seismic waves
