What is the layer of earth that is made up of mostly rock called?
The layer of the Earth that is made up of mostly rock is called the lithosphere. It includes the crust and the upper part of the mantle and is divided into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below.
What is the large body of rock or gas that orbits the earth?
Our moon is made almost entirely of rock identical in composition to the rock of earth's mantle. There is no object made of gas orbiting earth.
Is the Earth's crust made of magma or rock?
The Earth's crust is made of solid rock, not magma. Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while the crust is the outermost solid layer of the Earth.
What type of rock is the earth's outer core made of?
Earth's outer core is not made of rock. It is made of molten metal; mostly iron and nickel.
Is earth madeof mostly gas or rock?
The earth is made of rock. It's sometimes called the lithosphere, and litho means rock. A lot of the rock in the middle of the planet is molten, but liquified rock is rock just the same. The earth has an atmosphere, but it is not a "gas planet" in that sense. We look at the structure of the earth in geology and geophysics. And most folks associate geologists with rocks.

What is the solid part of Earth made up of?
Rock.
What is the largest part of earth's interior that is made of rock but is flexible?
The asthenosphere is the largest part of Earth's interior made of rock that is flexible. It is located beneath the lithosphere and consists of partially molten rock that allows for the movement of tectonic plates.
Is earth's mantle part of the biosphere why or why not?
No. The mantle is made of rock and nothing lives there. The biosphere consists of the life on Earth.
What layer of earth is made of solid rock?
The layer of Earth made of solid rock is the lithosphere. It includes the Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle, and it is broken into tectonic plates that move and interact with each other.
What the earth made out of?
The earth is made out of rock.
Which part of earth is made of rock that is close to it's melting point?
yes! its the Asthenosphere :D
Is the Earth's interior made of rock?
Yes, for the most part, except for the core which is believed to be molten iron.
What is the surface of the earth made of?
rock rock
What is the lithiosphere made of?
The lithosphere is made up of the Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle. It consists of solid rock material that forms the outer shell of the Earth.
