    Answer Key Section:


    ```

    Question: What is the layer of the Earth that is composed of solid iron and nickel?

    Answer: B) Core

    Rationale: The core of the Earth is primarily made up of solid iron and nickel, with an
    inner solid core and an outer liquid core.
    ```
    ```

    Question: Which layer of the Earth is the thickest?

    Answer: A) Mantle

    Rationale: The mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth, located between the crust and the
    core.
    ```
    ```

    Question: The lithosphere is a part of which layer of the Earth?

    Answer: C) Crust
    Rationale: The lithosphere is the rigid outer part of the Earth, consisting of the crust and
    the upper mantle.
    ```
    ```

    Question: What is the outermost layer of the Earth called?

    Answer: C) Crust

    Rationale: The crust is the outermost layer of the Earth, where we live and where most
    geological activity occurs.
    ```
    ```

    Question: Which layer of the Earth is responsible for generating the planet's magnetic
    field?

    Answer: D) Inner core

    Rationale: The Earth's magnetic field is generated by the movement of molten iron in the
    outer core surrounding the solid inner core.
    ```
    ```

    Question: The Mohorovičić discontinuity separates which two layers of the Earth?

    Answer: B) Crust and Mantle

    Rationale: The Mohorovičić discontinuity is the boundary between the Earth's crust and
    the underlying mantle.
    ```
    ```

    Question: The thinnest layer of the Earth is the

    Answer: C) Crust

    Rationale: The crust is the thinnest layer of the Earth, ranging from 5 to 70 kilometers
    thick beneath the oceans and continents, respectively.
    ```
    ```

    Question: What is the layer of the Earth that is made up of mostly solid rock?

    Answer: C) Crust

    Rationale: The crust is composed of solid rocks and minerals, varying in composition and
    thickness.
    ```
    ```

    Question: Which layer of the Earth is in a semi-liquid state?


    Answer: A) Mantle

    Rationale: The mantle is in a semi-liquid state, with the ability to flow over long periods of
    time, influencing tectonic plate movements.
    ```
    ```

    Question: The core of the Earth is divided into which two parts?

    Answer: A) Inner core and Outer core

    Rationale: The core of the Earth consists of an inner solid core and an outer liquid core,
    both primarily composed of iron and nickel.
