Module 5 - Earth's Layers
Test Description: Earth's Layers
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) Which of the following accurately identifies each layer of Earth in this model according to their relative density, and composition?
A
Layer 1 = B ; Layer 2 = A ; Layer 3 = C and D
B
Layer 1 = A and B ; Layer 2 = C ; Layer 3 = D
C
Layer 1 = D ; Layer 2 = C ; Layer 3 = A and B
D
Layer 1 = A ; Layer 2 = B and C ; Layer 3 = D
2) Which of the following correctly identifies each of these layers of Earth according to the information available about the relative position, density, and composition of each layer?
A
Layer A = Oceanic lithosphere ; Layer B = Continental lithosphere ; Layer C = Asthenosphere
B
Layer A = Continental lithosphere ; Layer B = Oceanic lithosphere ; Layer C = Asthenosphere
C
C) Layer A = Asthenosphere ; Layer B = Continental lithosphere ; Layer C = Continental lithosphere
D
Layer A = Oceanic lithosphere ; Layer B = Asthenosphere ; Layer C = Continental lithosphere
3) What does the behavior of seismic waves as they hit the outer core suggest about the composition of the outer core?
A
The outer core is hot softened rock because s-waves cannot pass through solids.
B
The outer core is made up of liquid because p-waves cannot pass through liquids.
C
The outer core is made up of gases because p-waves cannot pass through gases.
D
The outer core is made up of liquid because s-waves cannot pass through liquids.
4) According to the data on the Earth's interior, which of the following layers is the least dense?
A
Core
B
Upper Mantle
C
Crust
D
Lower Mantle
5) According to this data, which of the following conclusions is most valid?
A
Earth is made up of solid rock that increases with density closer to the core.
B
Each layer of Earth has a unique composition and density.
C
Each layer of Earth has similar compositions and densities.
D
Earth is made up of mostly liquid rock that decreases in density closer to the core.
6) Which of the following statements is true?
A
The density and temperature of Earth's layers increases as depth increases.
B
The mantle has a liquid outer core and a solid inner core.
C
The mantle is made up of rock containing mostly silicon and oxygen.
D
The density and temperature of Earth's layers decreases as depth increases.
7) Which of the following layers can seismic S-waves not travel through because it is made up of liquid metals?
