What is the destructive force in the earth's mantle?
The destructive force in the earths mantle is melted metals. The melted metal or molten lava is able to burn anything it touches.
By testing soil composition in various location scientists are able to determine the age of the earths?
crust
What is the soft layer of rock in the earths mantle?
The soft layer of rock in the Earth's mantle is called the asthenoshere. The asthenoshere is a solid but able to flow slowly.
How are scientists able to study the composition and size of the interior layers of earth?
- By using seismic waves .
Why didn't the mantle itself shrink and the thickness of the crust increase?
I dnt know that's why im asking you Dnt u know wat the answere is
The deepest scientist have been able to study earths interior depth in Km?
The deepest scientist have been able to study earths interior depth is 12,262 meters

Are we able to go into the earth's mantle to study it?
No we would over heat and die!

Which scientists work was based on the study of inherited characteristics?
Genetics is the study of inherited characteristics Geneticists study genes and DNA. Scientists who study genes may soon be able to prevent inherited diseases. .
What is the advantage of knowing a DNA sequence?
Scientists are able to study specific genes.
Scientists have been able to determine the composition of earths layer by what?
making inferences based on data from seismic waves.
How is it that so much is known about the interior of the Earth yet scientists have only dug as deep as about 10 km down?
Scientists aren't able to dig any deeper because the the temperatures, and there's a risk of digging into the mantle, which could be very dangerous. Scientists aren't able to dig any deeper because the the temperatures, and there's a risk of digging into the mantle, which could be very dangerous.

How have scientists figured out what the earths interior is made of?
Since we're not (yet?) able to drill a hole down there and find out, we're reduced to indirect measurements. Things like the mass of our planet and its gravity. (That's why we're pretty sure that the core is primarily iron.) The speed of earthquake vibrations in the mantle. The material that comes out of the Earth in volcanoes. Stuff like that.
How scientists learn about earths interior?
Scientists learn about the Earth's interior through the use of seismographs. Since seismic waves travel at various speeds when passing through different types of material, scientists will be able to formulate the conditions of the Earth's interior.
