Case Based Passage

The Earth is

The Earth is made up of three main layers: crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the outermost layer on which we live. Below the crust lies the mantle, which is very thick and hot. The core is the innermost layer and is extremely hot and heavy. The crust along with the upper part of the mantle forms the lithosphere. This lithosphere is broken into different tectonic plates. Beneath the lithosphere lies the asthenosphere, which is semi-molten and allows the plates to move.
