is the outermost layer, followed by the mantle, outer core,
and the inner core. The lithosphere is a another layer of

The Earth’s LayersThe Earth’s Layers• Crust - The Earth's outermost
surface is called the crust. The crust is relatively light and brittle. Most earthquakes occur within the crust.
• Mantle - The mantle is relatively flexible so it flows instead of fracturing.
• Outer core – Fluid layer that contains iron. When it flows it generates the Earth’s magnetic field.
• Inner core – Solid innermost layer of the Earth. Click for Next Slide
