Planet Earth contains three compositional layers- CORE‚ MENTLE & CRUST. Core: At the centre is the densest of the three layers‚ the core. The core is a spherical mass‚ composed largely on metallic iron‚ with lesser amount of nickel and other elements. Mantle: The thick shell of dense‚ rocky matter that surrounds the core is mantle. The mantle is less dense than the core but denser than the outer most layer‚ the crust. Crust: Above the mantle lies the thinnest and outermost layer‚ the crust
