Help needed...Earth Science anyone?

Question

Ok so if you are familiar with Earth and Space Science you'll probably know that the Layers of the earth in the order from the surface to the center are:
Crest
Upper Mantle
Lower Mantle
Outer Core
Inner Core

So...here is my question...
I need to know the state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas) in which the material for each layer exists.
I know the outer core is liquid and the Inner Core is Solid.
But what about the others? I need to know ASAP!
Thank you!

Answer 1

Crust solid
Upper Mantle solid but plastic
Lower Mantle solid but more plastic
Outer Core liquid
Inner Core solid

Answer 2

The crust is what we live on, rock, dirt, mud, etc... When you watch a video of a volcano erupting you are seeing what makes up the upper mantle and lower mantle being forced out. Its the same stuff as the crust just a lot hotter. The heat comes from the core and works its way to the surface kinda like what you see in a 'lava lamp'. The outer core is a thick liquid of heavier elements (nickle, iron, lead, gold...) and the inner core is the same heavier elements compressed solid by pressure created by the weight of everything on top. This solid core gives the earth its magnetic field. Good luck!

Answer 3

Well, the mantle's both lower and upper, are where your magma rests, therefore it would be a logical assumption that they are more in a liquidous state than a solid state (though this is debatable as to what constitutes a liquid) and the crust is what you are standing on, so that is solid.

i'm going to megastar, yet in basic terms because of the fact i like all the flaws technological understanding can do for me... like treatment ailment and make my workstation smaller. yet i'm no sturdy at technological understanding, no sturdy in any respect, and subsequently, i don't love technological understanding the others would. :)
