What is the innermost layer of the Earth called?

The innermost layer of the Earth is called the inner core.

Which layer of the Earth is mostly made up of solid iron and nickel?

The layer of the Earth that is mostly made up of solid iron and nickel is the inner core. The inner core is the hottest part of the Earth and is believed to be primarily composed of iron and nickel due to the high density and temperatures at its center.

What is the term for the rigid layer of the Earth's upper mantle and crust?

The term for the rigid layer of the Earth's upper mantle and crust is the lithosphere.

Which layer of the Earth is responsible for generating Earth's magnetic field?

The outer core of the Earth is responsible for generating Earth's magnetic field. This layer, composed of liquid iron and nickel, experiences convective currents that produce a geodynamo effect, generating the Earth's magnetic field through a process known as the dynamo theory.

What is the name of the layer that contains the Earth's tectonic plates?

The layer that contains the Earth's tectonic plates is called the lithosphere.

Which layer of the Earth is the thinnest?

The Earth's crust is the thinnest layer, ranging from 5 to 70 kilometers thick, with an average thickness of about 40 kilometers beneath the continents and around 7 kilometers beneath the ocean floor.

What is the name of the layer that separates the Earth's crust from the mantle?

The layer that separates the Earth's crust from the mantle is called the Mohorovi?i? discontinuity, also known as the Moho.

Which layer of the Earth is the hottest and is believed to be partially molten?

The hottest layer of the Earth, located in the innermost part, is the Outer Core. It is believed to be partially molten, mainly composed of iron and nickel, with temperatures reaching up to 5,700 degrees Celsius. The movement in this layer generates Earth's magnetic field through a process called geodynamo.

What is the outermost layer of the Earth called?

The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.

Which layer of the Earth is known for its plasticity and flow-like behavior?

The layer of the Earth known for its plasticity and flow-like behavior is the asthenosphere. This region of the upper mantle lies beneath the rigid lithosphere and is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates due to its ability to flow slowly over long periods of time.
