2. Twilight zone (mesopelagic zone)

3. Dark zone (bathypelagic zone)

4. Abyss (abyssopelagic zone)

5. Trenches (hadalpelagic zone)

The "middle layer" or second layer between the outer crust and the Earth's core is called the mantle. While it is solid material, it is also highly fluid due to the pressure of the overlying crust.
