why is it difficult to study the formation of the earth and it's structure?
Answers
Answer:
1) we cannot actually view the interior of the Earth because it is made up of solid rocks. 2) Due to the intense heat and pressure, we can only penetrate up to 12 kilometer into the Earth. 3) The crust is very thick to drill all the way through.

The Earth's interior is the basis for geology. If you recall from the Plate Tectonics section, earth exists as we see it today because of plate tectonics. ... Studying the interior of the Earth helps learn about all of these and the processes that helped create the Earth and currently drive plate tectonics.
