The crust goes down about 10 kilometers. Continental crust is about 3 billion years old and oceanic crust is about 70-100 million years old.

How far beneath the earths surface would you have to go to the liquid material of the earths core?
about 3,000 km study island question
How is the temperature and pressure in the Earth's mantle related to the depth of the mantle?
The degree of temperature and exertion of pressure by the molten materials (magma) within the mantle is directly proportional to its depth. This means that, the deeper you go down the mantle the higher the degree of temperature and pressure exerted.
How are ores deep beneath earths surface removed?
Through Mine Shafts, and Conveyor Belts that go far under.
What happens to the mantle rock as you go deeper into the mantle?
earthquakes and volcanoes
Mantle layer with more convection Mantle layer with less convection?
It's mantle with less, then mantle with more as you go deeper into earth.
What is hotter inner mantle or outer mantle?
the earths core is the hottest part of the earth. the metals in the earths outer core is liquid because of the heat and the metals in the earths core is solid but still the earths core is the hottest
How far beneath the earths surface would you have to go find liquid material in the earths core?
1800km - 1900km

How are earthquakes eruptions different from volcanoes?
Earthquakes do not exactly erupt. Earthquakes are caused by the movement the Earth's tectonic plates. Yes, Earthquakes can contribute to the eruptions of Volcanoes because when one plate goes under the other water could be taken with it down into the Mantle. The water and sometimes air when is in the mantle is forced to find an exit and those exits are Volcanoes. When they go into the Volcano pressure builds up and the Volcano erupts. So really Earthquakes are caused by the movement of the Earths tectonic plates while Volcanoes are caused by a build up of pressure in the Earths Mantle.
How far down do jellyfishes go?
as far as the midnight zone

How far beneath the earth surface would you have to go to find liquid material in earths core?
1800km - 1900km
Why has no person ever gone deeper than six miles into the earth?
because it gets hotter as you go in to the earths surface. the six miles is only the crust because the mantle is to hot to in to.
Can anything or anybody live in a volcano?
if its dormant yes if its acitive no there will always be lava or molton rock in a volcano as long as its active volcanoes tubes lead to the earths core however its too hot to go that far down
What is the relationship between the density of earths layer the position of each layer?
Each relationship between each layer is different. Like the mantle and the outer core. Its like the mantle is solid and it starts to soften and turn to liquid the deeper you go. Or like the outer core and the inner core . The outer core starts to get harder and denser and the deeper you go the solider it gets. Like the mantle and the crust too. The mantle gets a little more solid and becomes the crust.
