Layers of the Atmosphere The envelope of gas surrounding the Earth changes from the ground up. Five distinct layers have been identified using... • thermal characteristics (temperature changes)‚ • chemical composition‚ • movement‚ and • density. Each of the layers are bounded by "pauses" where the greatest changes in thermal characteristics‚ chemical composition‚ movement‚ and density occur. Troposphere The troposphere begins at the Earth’s surface and extends from 4 to 12 miles (6 to 20

The crust is divided into continental plates which drift slowly (only a few centimeters each year) atop the less rigid mantle. The crust is thinner under the oceans; this is where new crust is formed. Continental crust is about 25-90 km thick. 2. Mantle: Under the crust is the rocky mantle‚ which is composed of silicon‚ oxygen‚ magnesium

The idea of using the fingerprint to identify people is not new (Ashbaugh‚ 1999; German‚ 2006). Fingerprinting’s history goes all the way back to the third century BC‚ when the Chinese would apply ink to their fingers and then place it on official assignments‚ as a way of signing it. These marks they used‚ however‚ as a signature‚ rather than a means of identifying someone. Centuries later‚ a professor in plant morphology‚ Marcello Malpighi‚ described fingerprints as having ridges‚ spirals and loops

There are many different layers within the Earth. The core is at center of the Earth. The Earth’s core takes up sixteen percent of Earth’s volume‚ containing thirty-three percent of its Mass ..Pressure rises steadily inside the earth because of the weight of overlying rock. Therefore ‚the Pressure at the outer boundary of the core reaches 1.37 million atmospheres‚ 3.7 million Atmospheres. The core is made mostly of iron and nickel and possibly smaller amounts of lighter elements including sulfur
