What is the scientific name for the inner core?
The scientific name for the Earth's inner core is "Earth's solid inner core."
Does high temperature in earth's inner core cause earthquakes?
No, high temperature in the Earth's inner core does not directly cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are primarily caused by the movement of tectonic plates, which generate stress and pressure along fault lines. The heat in the inner core is a result of radioactive decay and pressure from the overlying layers, rather than a direct cause of seismic activity.
Are the inner and outer core of earth the same?
No. The inner and outer core are both composed primarily of iron and nickel, but the outer core is liquid and surrounds the inner core. The inner core is the innermost layer of Earth and is kept solid by the enormous pressure.
What are the two parts of the inner core?
the solid inner core and the liquid outer core
What is thicker inner or outer core?
The outer core is thicker than the inner core. The outer core is about 2,260 kilometers thick, while the inner core is approximately 1,220 kilometers thick.

Compare and contrast outer and inner cores?
The inner core is solid.The outer core is liquid.It may seem odd that the hotter, inner core is solid while the outer core is liquid magma, but in the inner core you have the entire pressure of the earth pushing down on you.The outer core is hot, molten iron and nickel under extreme pressure. Convection currents cause movements in the liquid outer core. Scientists hypothesize that these movements cause Earth's magnetic field. The outer core surrounds the inner core, which occupies the center of Earth. The inner core is also iron and nickel and is also extremely hot. But pressure within the inner core is so great that it remains a solid.
What factors contribute to the multidecadal variation of the Earth's inner-core rotation?
The multidecadal variation of the Earth's inner-core rotation is influenced by factors such as changes in the Earth's magnetic field, interactions between the inner core and outer core, and the distribution of mass within the Earth. These factors can cause fluctuations in the inner-core rotation over periods of several decades.
What is the scientific name for the inner core?
The scientific name for the Earth's inner core is "Earth's solid inner core."
The most inner layer of earth?
The inner core.
What is the inner-most part of the earth?
The inner core

How is the inner core and outer core different from each other?
The outer core is liquid, the inner core is solid The outer core surrounds the inner core The outer core is iron-rich, the inner core is iron-rich and nickel-rich There is more pressure acting on the inner core The inner core is hotter
What is the order of the earth's inner layers?
Crust, mantle, outer core, inner core
