Earth's surface is free to radiate heat into space. The interior is not. The interior does transfer heat the the surface, but rather slowly. It is hot due to residual heat from Earth's formation and from the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements.
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
The Earth's atmosphere traps heat.
No. While Betelgeuse is larger and brighter than the sun, it actually has a lower surface temperature.
The sun is much hotter than the Earth's crust. The temperature at the Earth's core is estimated to be around 5700 degrees Celsius, whereas the temperature at the surface of the sun is about 5500 degrees Celsius.
The Earths surface would be much colder than it is.

It is warmer underground than on the surface because the Earth's inner core is much hotter than the surface. The temperature increases the deeper you go beneath the Earth's surface due to the geothermal heat coming from the Earth's interior.
Antarctica's beaches are warmer than the interior of the continent.
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
Less than 5%.
No. Antarctica is the size of USA and Mexico, combined. The coastal areas are generally warmer than the interior.
Because it's closer to the sun.
true
It is a mountain.
When surface air is significantly warmer than the air above it
