In order-1.Inner core2.Outer core3.mantle 4.Crust 5.Lithosphere Inner core- This is a 1400 KM section of the earth where temperatures range from 4000-7000 degrees celcius. The metals that make it up are supposed to be liquid at this temperature but the incredibly high pressures keep them solid.Outer core- This is a continually moving molten metal section of the earth. This liquid gives the south and north poles o the earth it's magnetic field. the temperatures her are 4000-6000*CMantle- 2800 Kilometeres thick, temperatures o 500 degrees c and 3000 near the core. Upper mantle is solid, Upper mantle and the crust form the lithosphere, which is a rigid layer of rock. below the lithosphere is a layer of soft molten rock called the Asthenosphere. Below this is is the lower mantle which is under enormous pressure because of all the material above itCrust- this is the layer on which all living things live. it contains land and sea. the crust is thinnest under the seas, about 11 km's. It is thickest under continents about 70 km's.It's like postage stamps over a basketball, in thinness

1. Hydrosphere- The body of water that covers the earth2. Atmosphere- The gases that blanket the earth3.Lithosphere- The bit of the earth that living things inhabit4. Biosphere- the collection of living things

A mineral is a naturally occurring inorganic compound with a with a fixed chemical composition2.Hardness is rated by Moh's scale and is measured by what scratches them.3.Streak is if a mineral leaves a streak on other minerals4.Colour is what colour it is in comparison to other states of minerals
