Describe the layers of the Earth, including their state (solid/liquid) and thickness. What parts of the Earth are solid? What is the part of Earth's structure under the oceans? Use a peach as an analo

Here are the answers to your questions:

1. a) and b) I cannot copy a drawing. However, the layers of the Earth from the center outwards are:

   • Inner Core: Solid, approximately $1,220 \text{ km}$ thick.
   • Outer Core: Liquid, approximately $2,260 \text{ km}$ thick.
   • Mantle: Mostly solid but ductile, approximately $2,900 \text{ km}$ thick.
   • Crust: Solid, varies from $5-10 \text{ km}$ (oceanic) to $30-70 \text{ km}$ (continental).

2. The parts of Earth that are solid are the inner core, the mantle (though it behaves plastically), and the crust.

3. The part of the Earth's structure under the oceans is the oceanic crust.

4. The image shows a peach, which is used as an analogy for the Earth's structure. The skin of the peach represents the Earth's crust. The image does not distinguish between oceanic and continental crust.

5. Here are the corrected statements: a) Earth has two types of crust: continental and oceanic. b) The thickest parts of Earth's crust are under the continents. c) New crust is continually formed at mid-ocean ridges. d) Basalt is a rock that occurs in the ocean floor.
