The mantle is under the earth crust and is made of mostly peridotite, which is a denser rock than that of the igneus, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks found in the crust. The crust ranges in temperature from 200 - 400 degrees Celsius the furthur towards the earths core one goes. The mantle however ranges in temperature from 500 - 900 degrees Celsius the furthur towards the earths core one goes. The mantle has two layers and upper layer and a lower layer; whereas the crust has only one layer.
