Answer:

The Earth is formed of three concentric layers: the core, the mantle and the crust; these are separated by transition zones called discontinuities.

There is more to the Earth than what we can see on the surface. In fact, if you were able to hold the Earth in your hand and slice it in half, you'd see that it has multiple layers. But of course, the interior of our world continues to hold some mysteries for us. Even as we intrepidly explore other worlds and deploy satellites into orbit, the inner recesses of our planet remains off limit from us.

However, advances in seismology have allowed us to learn a great deal about the Earth and the many layers that make it up. Each layer has its own properties, composition, and characteristics that affects many of the key processes of our planet. They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core. Let's take a look at them and see what they have going on.

Like all terrestrial planets, the Earth's interior is differentiated. This means that its internal structure consists of layers, arranged like the skin of an onion. Peel back one, and you find another, distinguished from the last by its chemical and geological properties, as well as vast differences in temperature and pressure.

Our modern, scientific understanding of the Earth's interior structure is based on inferences made with the help of seismic monitoring. In essence, this involves measuring sound waves generated by earthquakes, and examining how passing through the different layers of the Earth causes them to slow down. The changes in seismic velocity cause refraction which is calculated (in accordance with Snell's Law) to determine differences in density.

These are used, along with measurements of the gravitational and magnetic fields of the Earth and experiments with crystalline solids at pressures and temperatures characteristic of the Earth's deep interior, to determine what Earth's layers looks like. In addition, it is understood that the differences in temperature and pressure are due to leftover heat from the planet's initial formation, the decay of radioactive elements, and the freezing of the inner core due to intense pressure.
