Question

Give geographical reason for the following :
(i)Temperature starts rising gradually towards the interior of the earth
(ii)The asthenosphere is in a semi -molten state.
(iii)The inner core of the earth is in a solid state .​

Answer 1

Answer:

I) Due to enhancing density and pressure the temperature goes on increasing gradually towards inside of the interior of the earth.

ii) The asthenosphere is the denser, weaker layer beneath the lithospheric mantle. ... The temperature and pressure of the asthenosphere are so high that rocks soften and partly melt, becoming semi-molten

iii) because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials - like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't "melt" very easily, so they stay solid.

please confirm the 2nd answer

hope it helps you!!
