A look at the Inner Earth Studying the earth’s interior can help us to understand earthquakes‚ volcanoes‚ plate tectonics and more about the inner earth’s natural processes. In general the earth’s interior has been sorted by Gravity. Heavier elements like iron tend to sink toward the center or core of the earth. Lighter materials‚ the silicates‚ oxygen compounds and water have risen to become part of the crust. This action has created distinct layers within the earth and is still in process today

power plants. Using terms such as granum‚ photosystem‚ ATP and chlorophyll‚ explain this comparison. This comparison of a chlorophyll being thought of as a solar panel like the ones used to generate electricity at power plants can be explained as a chlorophyll would be the solar panel‚ a photosystem would be a specific arrangement of the panels‚ granum would be a stack of solar panels‚ and finally‚ ATP would be the electrical energy that is generated at the power plant. 2.

of the Moon’s origin? The currently accepted hypothesis for the Moon’s origin--which is supported by chemical analysis of Moon rocks--is that it began as part of Earth but was blown off when the early Earth was struck by a Mars-sized early planet (retroactively named Theia). Huge amounts of debris were ejected into orbit around the Earth‚ where most of it coalesced into the Moon. The other moons in the solar system have different origins. The small ones are mostly captured asteroids‚ I think‚ while
