Above the inner core is the outer core. The outer core is also made mostly of iron.

Beneath the asthenosphere, it is the strong lower part of the mantle. It reaches from the bottom of the asthenosphere to the Earth’s core

a layer of mostly solid rock that flows and oozes like a milkshake. The lighter plates of the lithosphere float on the asthenosphere

At the center of the earth is the solid inner core. The inner core is made of iron with some nickel and very small amounts of oxygen, silicon, aluminum & magnesium.

The outermost rigid layer of the earth. It is made of the crust and the rigid upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere is divided into pieces called tectonic plates

oceanic crust, the outermost layer of Earth’s lithosphere that is found under the oceans

The mantle is just above the outer core and below the crust. It is made mostly of silicon, oxygen, magnesium, and iron. The mantle is the largest layer.

Continental crust is the layer of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks that forms the geological continents
