EARTH

crust : the outermost layer of earth
lithosphere : a ridged layer that has earths tectonic plates
asthenosphere : a soft layer that can bend, but it is still flexible
mesosphere : the solid piece that extends to the core
outer core : the layer of molten metal that surrounds the inner core
inner core : a dense ball of solid metal that has extreme pressure
transform : when two tectonic plates slide past each other
divergent : when two tectonic plates move away from each other
convergent : when two tectonic plates push into each other
subduction : where a continental plate and an oceanic plate collide
rift valley : this forms at a place where two tectonic plates pull apart
convection currents : when magma heats up rock in the mantle, which causes the rock to rise and fall
plate : a section of the lithosphere
convection : transfer of heat through waves
conduction : the transfer of heat through materials that are touching
radiation : the transfer of energy through no contact
magma : molten rock in the earths center
