What do geoligists use to map the earths interior?
Geologists use seismic waves to map the Earth's interior. By studying how these waves travel through the Earth, geologists can infer information about the composition and structure of different layers beneath the surface. This helps them understand the different layers of the Earth, such as the crust, mantle, and core.
What are earthquakes. How do they occur?
earthquakes happen when sections of the earths crust shift.These shifting parts called plates,are actually pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior of the earth. The majority of earthquakes happen along the edges of those plates,and along weak areas of the crust called fault zones
What are these parts primarily made up of in the earths interior?
they are crust and the mantle and also the core
What is the thick layer of earths interior that lies between the crust and the core?
the mantle, which contains the lithosphere, asthenosphere and the mesosphere
What is the thinnest part of earths interior?
The Earth's crust is the thinnest part of Earth's interior, ranging from about 5-70 kilometers (3-44 miles) in thickness. It is divided into two types: continental crust, thicker and less dense, and oceanic crust, thinner and more dense.
How does temperature of earths crust compare to the temperature of earths interior?
it depends on the deepth
What is the general composition of earths continental crust?
Water
How does s-waves an p-waves vibrations revealed about earths interior?
when the crust breacks apart it reveles objects beneth earths iner crust.
When earthquake happen when these sections of earth crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move

How does stress in the crust change earths crust?
it means earthquakes will happen more often

If holes drilled sveral kilometers into earths crust provide direct evidence about earths interior in the form of what?
Rock samples
What composition is earths crust?
oceanic crust is made of basalt while continental crust is made of silica rich rocks like granite.
Name the thick layer of earths interior that lies between the crust and the core?
The mantle
