  1. There is no specific reason for this.
  2. Due to hotness of core, it(core)turns from solid to liquid.
  3. Weight of the crust is pushing down the core.
  4. The tremendous pressure from other layers is pushing the crust.

hintHint:

Tremendous pressure

The correct answer is: The tremendous pressure from other layers is pushing the crust.


    • The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials - like iron and nickel.
    • And it is made up solid material because the tremendous pressure from other layers is pushing the crust.
