Mantle |
The second layer of the Earth. This layer has three layrs the Asthenosphere the middle mantle and the lower mantle. This layer is the semiliquid and is what makes the Asthenosphere move. |
|
Lithosphere |
The Lithosphere is the outer part of the crust and the upper mantle. |
|
Outer Core |
The layer that is composed of iron and nickel and the layer is made of liquid. |
|
Inner Core |
The iron and nickel made out of solid. |
|
Crust |
The Crust is outer part of the Earth. |
|
Asthenosphere |
The Asthenosphere is the Earthś upper mantle and the Lithosphere is below the Asthenosphere. |
|
Mineral |
A mineral is a natural occurrence or a substance that is inorganic. |
|
Magma |
Material below whitin the Earthś crust when igneous rock and lava are formed by cooling it. |
|
Lava |
Lava is hot melted rock and it erupts from a volcano. |
|
Convergent boundary |
Convergent boundary is when two (or more)plate tectonics move toward and collide. |
|
Divergent boundary |
Divergent boundary is a feature bewt |
|
Transform boundary |
Transform boundary is is when a realitive motion is horizontal in a eather sinestral direction. |
|
Sedimantery rock |
Sedimantery rock is rock that is formed by rivers, lakes, oceans, and glaciers and contains fossils. |
|
Metamorphic rock |
Metamorphic rock is a rock that changes by heat and preassure. |
|

Igneous rock is a rock that formed through cooling through lava and magma. |
|
Rock cycle |
The rock cycle is a cycle where shows how rocks are formed it goes around and it never stops it keps on going around and around. |
|
Thermal energy |
Thermal energy is when energy gives again energy and makes the energy move faster motion to the molecules. |
|
Conduction |
Conduction is a good insulater to pass heat through. |
|
Convection |
Convection is fluid movement therefore there is less dense. |
|
Radiation |
Radiation is the movent of energy whit electronic waves moving as particlas especially hogh energy particals. |
