Question 9 • Environmental Science (2025-2026)
Earth’s layers are not uniform in thickness: the crust is much thinner than the mantle and core. The core is mostly iron and nickel, the mantle contains solid rock as well as a partially molten region, and the lithosphere includes the crust and the rigid uppermost mantle. Therefore, “The layers of Earth are uniform in thickness” is not true.
