Earth's Internal Structure: Crust, Mantle, Core

Earth is made up of layers with different properties: a thin outer crust, a thick, mostly solid mantle that can flow very slowly over long time periods, a liquid metal outer core, and a solid metal inner core at the very center, held solid by extreme pressure despite its high temperature. This layered structure, especially the slowly flowing mantle, is what makes plate motion possible.
