LEARNING TASK: OUR DYNAMIC EARTH

Procedure:
1. Label the drawing corresponding to the Earth’s layers.
2. Describe the different layers of the Earth using symbols.
3. Choose from the response grid on the right the symbol that you need to finish the figure on the left.
4. Draw the symbol/s in the corresponding layer of the Earth.

Complete the sentences by supplying the correct word.

1. _______________ is the most abundant element in the Earth’s crust.
2. The mantle is made up mostly by the element _______________.
3. The upper mantle has with it a soft weak layer called the _____________, which is capable of flowing.
This property facilitates the movement of the lithospheric plates.
