Earth separates its layers by density due to the process of differentiation during its early formation. Heavier materials sank towards the center of the planet, while lighter materials rose towards the surface. This created distinct layers based on the density of the materials, with the densest materials concentrated in the core and lighter materials towards the outer layers.
Density is responsible for determining how Earth materials separate out into interior layers.
The Earth has layers because it is made up of materials of varying density.
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
The core is the densest layer.
The layers of Earth's interior from least to greatest density are: Crust Mantle Outer core Inner core

Yes, layers of the Earth haven't identical density.
No

The density and state of the subtance of the particular layer.
Yes, density is a key factor in determining the composition and order of Earth's layers. The layers are organized based on their densities, with the densest materials (like the inner core) found at the center and the least dense materials (like the crust) at the surface. This density stratification helps to create the distinct layers of the Earth.
The deeper you get into the earth, the more weight you have above you. This results in pressure that increases the density of the material below.
