* Geology: the science devoted to the study of dynamic processes occurring on the earth’s surface and in its interior * Core: earth’s innermost zone. It’s extremely hot and has a solid middle surrounded by a liquid core of molten or semisolid lava * Mantle: thick zone surrounding the core. Mostly solid rock but under the outermost part lies the asthenosphere (hot‚ partly melted pile-able rock that flows and can be deformed like soft plastic) * Crust: outermost and thinnest zone of the
