SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -The mantle is the mostly solid bulk of Earth’s interior. The mantle lies between Earth’s dense, super-heated core and its thin outer layer, the crust. The mantle is about 2, 900 kilometers (1, 802 miles) thick, and makes up a whopping 84 percent of Earth’s total volume.

Detailed explanation-2: -The crust. This is the outside layer of the earth and is made of solid rock, mostly basalt and granite. There are two types of crust; oceanic and continental.

Detailed explanation-3: -The crust is a silicate solid, the mantle is a viscous molten rock, the outer core is a viscous liquid, and the inner core is a dense solid.

Detailed explanation-4: -Earth’s mantle is a layer of silicate rock between the crust and the outer core. It has a mass of 4.01 × 1024 kg and thus makes up 67% of the mass of Earth. It has a thickness of 2, 900 kilometers (1, 800 mi) making up about 84% of Earth’s volume.
