What is B in the given image
- Crust
- Inner core
- Outer core
- Mantle
Hint:
The earth is made up of three different layers: the crust, the mantle and the core.
The correct answer is: Mantle
- The mantle is the mostly-solid bulk of Earth's interior.
- The mantle lies between Earth's dense, super-heated core and its thin outer layer, the crust. The mantle is about 2,900 kilometers (1,802 miles) thick, and makes up a whopping 84% of Earth's total volume.
