Detailed explanation-1: -Mantle is the thickest layer of earth at 2900km.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mantle-2, 900 km thick. Outer Core-2, 200 km thick. Inner Core-1, 230 to 1, 530 km thick.
Detailed explanation-3: -The troposphere is the densest atmospheric layer, compressed by the weight of the rest of the atmosphere above it.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The thickest interior layer of the Earth is the mantle, which is about 1800 miles thick. The layer called the outer core is about 1400 miles thick. The thinnest interior layer of the Earth is the inner core, which is just about 800 miles thick.
Detailed explanation-5: -Crust is thickest where there are mountains, so the Moho will be deeper under mountains than under the oceanic crust. Since oceanic crust is also denser than continental crust, it floats lower on the mantle.
