  1. Chapter 1 Section 2: Earth’s Interior

  2. 1. What are the 2 main types of evidence that geologists use to learn about Earth’s Interior? Direct Evidence from Rock Samples Indirect evidence from seismic waves

  3. 2. What is pressure? • Pressure results from a force pressing on an area.

  4. 3. What causes the Earth’s magnetic field? • Scientists think that the movements in the liquid outer core create Earth’s magnetic field.

  5. 4. Directions: Label the layers of Earth by writing the name of the layer in the blank.

  6. Directions: If the statement is true, write true. If the statement is false, change the sentence to make it true. • 5. The deeper down inside Earth, the greater the pressure. • True • 6. The temperature inside Earth decreases as depth increases. • False. The temperature increases with depth. • 7. The crust is the thinnest under mountains. • False. The crust is the thickest under mountains.

  7. Directions: Pick the type of rock that is being described.

  8. Directions: Pick if each describes the crust, mantle, the outer core, or the inner core.

  9. Directions: Pick if each describes the lithosphere, asthenosphere, or mesosphere
