lithosphere
Geologists have determined that our planet the Earth has a layered internal structure. There is a solid nickel iron core surrounded by a layer of molten iron. Above this there is the mantle and floating on top of the mantle there is the crust made of Oceanic and Continental materials.
No. The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.
The layers of the Earth are the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core.
Geologists or paleontologists are usually the professionals who study and dig up the Earth's crust in order to understand its composition, structure, and history.

Mohorovicic discontinuity (or simply Moho)
The layers of the Earth are the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core.
Between the core and the crust is the mantle. The upper mantle contains the hard lithosphere and the weak asthenosphere. The lower mantle is marked by an increase in temperature and pressure. As a result, the rocks in the lower mantle flow much slower.The mantle...the mantleThis layer is called the mantle.The part of the Earth that is located between the core and the crust is called the mantle.The four general layers are:1. Crust (outer and surface layer)2. Mantle (thickest individual layer)3) Outer Core (liquid)4) Inner Core (solid)The mantle is sometimes divided into the mantle (proper) and the upper mantle, which exhibits some different characteristics from the layer as a whole.
The outermost layer of the Earth is the crust or lithosphere.
Geologists or paleontologists are usually the professionals who study and dig up the Earth's crust in order to understand its composition, structure, and history.
Pieces of Earth's crust that are floating on the mantle are known as tectonic plates. These plates are rigid sections of the Earth's lithosphere that move and interact with each other, leading to phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Geologists call an area where there is one type of topography a landform region.
