Which statement explains the relationship between the density of a material and its movement in Earth’s interior?
Cooler materials move from Earth’s mantle to the lithosphere.
Cooler materials are highly dense, causing them to sink to the outer core.
Warmer materials sink to the mantle because their density slowly decreases.
Warmer materials have a high density, causing them to rise to Earth’s surface.

Answer:

The correct option is Cooler materials are highly dense, causing them to sink to the outer core.

Explanation:

  • The lower mantle is less dense than the outer core, the upper mantle is less dense than the lower mantle, and so on, with the crust being the least dense and lightest part of our planet. The outer core is composed of material that is somewhat less dense than the inner core.
  • As we extend from the inner core, the density will drop with each layer. It is because of gravity. Gravity will tug on something more strongly the denser it is. The result is that the Earth's core is drawn closer to the densest elements, while less dense layers gravitate away from it.
