Physical Layers Compositional Layers

Answer 1

To answer the query regarding the composition and physical layers of the Earth, we can categorize the layers into two distinct groups: Physical Layers and Compositional Layers. Here's how they are generally classified:

**Physical Layers:**
1. Lithosphere (solid outer layer)
2. Asthenosphere (semi-fluid upper mantle)
3. Mesosphere (solid lower mantle)
4. Outer core (liquid layer)
5. Inner core (solid inner layer)

**Compositional Layers:**
1. Crust (thin, outermost layer)
2. Mantle (thick layer beneath the crust)
3. Core (innermost layer, consisting of outer core and inner core)

You would need to drag and drop these terms into their respective categories based on these classifications.
