What are the names of other two layers of the earth and what are they made of?

The other two layers of the Earth are the mantle and the core. The mantle is primarily composed of silicate minerals, while the core is mostly made of iron and nickel.


Which two layers of the earth are made of rock?

The two layers of the Earth that are made of rock are the crust and the mantle. The crust is the outermost layer and is composed of solid rock, while the mantle lies just below the crust and consists of solid rock that is capable of flowing over long periods of time.


True or false igneous rocks are formed into layers?

No. Igneous rocks were NOT formed in layers. I took a test and they are not formed in layers. This is what the paragraph said {The Word "igneous" means made from fire or heat. All igneous rocks have been formed by heat. Deep in the earth it is very hot. The rocks and minerals there have been changed into molten rock called "magma". This hot material sometimes rises to the earths surface through fissures or cracks caused by earthquakes, volcanoes or other deep movements of the earth's crust. Igneous rocks are formed when magma cools and hardens. Scientists divide igneous rocks into two group. They are called "extrusive" rocks and "intrusive" rocks. When magma hardens below the suface of the earth, surrounded by older rocks which it has invaded, the rock is called "intusive" igeous rock. If magma reaches the surface of the earth, however, it becomes lava, and the rock is called "extusive" igneous rock. Lava is a common igneous rock. The namelava can mean molten rock or cool hard rock. The two most common and important igneous rocks are granite and basalt. Some others are diorite, felsite, pumice and obsidian.} thank you! that was fun, and your welcome. bye!


Which two earth layers are made of solid material that does not flow?

The Earth's inner core and outer crust are both solid layers that do not flow. The inner core is solid due to immense pressure, while the crust is made up of solid rock.


What are the two layers of earth's core?

The two layers of Earth's core are the outer core and the inner core. The outer core is composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel, while the inner core is a solid sphere made of iron and nickel.

Which are the two sub-layers of Earth's crust?

The Earth's crust consists of two main sub-layers: the continental crust and the oceanic crust. The continental crust is thicker, primarily composed of granitic rocks, and forms the continents. In contrast, the oceanic crust is thinner, predominantly made up of basaltic rocks, and underlies the ocean basins. These sub-layers differ in composition, thickness, and density.

Which two layers of the earth are liquid?

The two layers of earth that are made up of liquids are the crust and the outer core. The crust is the surface of the earth which is where the oceans are. The outer core is made up of iron and is the creator of the earths magnetic field.
