Liquid part of the earth is called?

The liquid part of the Earth is called the outer core, which is a layer beneath the Earth's mantle. It is composed mainly of iron and nickel in a liquid state. The movement of this liquid outer core is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field.


Is earth core a solid or a liquid?

There are two parts to the earth's core. A liquid outer core and a solid inner core, both made of nickel-iron The reason that the inner core is solid is because the intense pressure from the entire mass of earth surrounding it compresses the liquid metal into a solid state.


Is the core of mars dead?

The core of Mars is believed to be partially liquid and not entirely dead. Unlike Earth, which has a solid inner core surrounded by a liquid outer core, Mars likely has a partially molten outer core with a solid inner core that may be cooling. This suggests that while the core is not active in the same way as Earth's, it is not completely inert either. Ongoing studies continue to investigate the thermal and magnetic properties of Mars' core.


What is the farthest point inside the earth called?
