The earth has three main parts. The crust the Mantle and the Core
Crust
The crust is the part of the earth we live on .
We can only see the upper part of the crust,
the lower part of the crust is solid rock .
Mantle
The Mantle is the biggest part of the earth.
The upper mantle is sort of liquid-solid mixture
like hot clay. This lets the plates move and
make earthquakes. The lower mantle is a hot
solid mixture of Iron , Oxygen and other metals
and rocks. Both layers have these things in them.
Core
The core is the center of the earth . The outer
core is hot liquid molten metals . The inner core
is solid from all the pressure of the other layers.
It is made up of iron and metals.
Before the 1900's - 2000's there were many myths
of what was in the earth.
