What is Earth's internal heat?

- Earth's heat comes from two main sources: physical processes early in its formation, and
radioactive decay.

what is the importance of the layers of the earth?

- The Earth's layers the liquid outer core, solid inner core, mantle, and crust have an important
effect on processes like plate tectonics, seismic activity, and magnetic field generation, which in
turn shape the planet's geology, magnetic field, and overall habitability.

Heat Transfer Mechanism

- This has a big impact on the Earth’s plate tectonics because the hot rocks that had been heated
by the Earth’s core is rising to cause the plate tectonics to move in two different directions and it
begins to lose heat and the cooler rocks sinks to the inside of the Earth
