Question 5
Scientists have discovered that the inner core of Earth is a solid while the outer core is a liquid. What is the cause of this observation?

-The outer core has a higher temperature and more pressure than the inner core
-The outer core has a lower temperature and lower pressure than the inner core
-The inner core has a lower temperature and higher pressure than the outer core
-The inner core has a higher temperature and lower pressure than the outer core

Question 6
Scientists have discovered convection currents inside Earth. Explain how these convection currents move and what layer(s) they occur in.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Question 5: The outer core has a lower temperature and lower pressure than the inner core

This is because the outer core is not as hot as the inner core. It is also under slightly less pressure. Due to this, the outer core is liquid and less dense than the inner core.

Question 6: I'm not sure what the answer to that is.. but I believe you'll figure it out!
