The outer core, inner core, mantle, crust, water, atmosphere. This is the order from densest to least dense.
No. The crust is the least dense of Earth's layers. The inner core is the densest player.
It is neither. The densest layer is the inner core. The least dense layer is the crust.
Oceanic
The earth's crust is less denser than the mantle.

Plate tectonic movement and subduction zones.
No. The crust contains a small fraction of earth's mass. Most of the mass is contained in the mantle.
Earth's densest layer is the inner core, which is a solid, dense ball of metal composed mainly of iron and nickel. It has a density of around 13 grams per cubic centimeter.
densest
Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. Oceanic crust has a density of about 3 g/cm^3, while continental crust has a lower density of about 2.7 g/cm^3.
