Geologist
• A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface
• 200 years ago was the start of geology
• Geology is fairly new

Rock
• The material that forms Earth’s surface
• Geologists study rocks

Forces that shape Earth
• Constructive
• Destructive
![Page 5: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Constructive
• Building up
Ex. Construction
The building (MS) was changed constructively.

Constructive
• Mountain ranges forming(slowly)
• Over millions of years
![Page 7: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Destructive
• Forces that slowly wear down the Earth’s surface
• Destroy =Destruction

Destructive
• Erosion by wind and water
• Think of our local beaches
![Page 9: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Journey to the Center of the Earth
• Temperature increases
• Pressure increases
![Page 10: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How do we know what inside Earth is like if we can’t travel through it?
• Scientist know this by studying seismic waves/data from earthquakes
![Page 11: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
If you took that journey you would find layers of the Earth
• Crust
• Mantel
• Core
![Page 12: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Crust
• “skin” of earth• Like the shell of an egg or onion skin• VERY THIN!!!!!!• Includes land on bottom of ocean floor
– Thinnest under the ocean(basalt)– Thickest under mountains(granite)
• Is part of the lithosphere• Most abundant element oxygen then silicon
![Page 13: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Lithosphere
• Lithosphere means stone
• Crust and uppermost mantle
• Rigid
• Contains plates
![Page 14: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Oceanic vs. Continental Crust
Oceanic Continental
Under oceans Under continents
thinner thicker
Made of basalt(think salty ocean) Made of granite
More dense Less dense

Asthenosphere
• Gooey/bendable
• Plastic like rock
• Convection take place here
• Found in Upper mantle only
• NOT A LIQUID!!!!
• SOLID
![Page 16: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Mantle
• A layer of hot rock
• is also part of the lithosphere
![Page 17: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Core Center of the Earth)
• Inner core
• Outer core
![Page 18: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Outer core• Acts like a thick liquid
![Page 19: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Inner Core• dense ball of solid metal
• Heat source for convection
• Hotter than the sun
• Spins-creates earth’s magnetic shield
![Page 20: Earth’s Interior Interior=inside. Geologist A geologist is a scientist that studies the forces that shape earth’s surface 200 years ago was the start](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032701/56649c6d5503460f9491f0b2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Lithosphere
•
Crust and uppermost mantleFloats on the asthenosphereBroken into pieces- tectonic plates

Crust
• Crust part of the (Lithosphere)– Continental– Less dense – Oceanic– More dense

Mantle
– Upper Mantle called the asthenosphere
