  • The cloud of gas and dust grew hot and created the Sun.

  • In the outer regions of the cloud, icy matter and gas formed the giant gas planets.

  • Gravity caused the cloud of gas and dust to spin.

  • Leftover debris formed asteroids, comets, and dwarf planets, like Pluto.

  • 1. An explosion of a supernova led to a gravitational collapse of a dense cloud of gas and dust.

  • Near the center of the cloud, clumps formed the inner rocky planets.

  • The spinning cloud flattened like a disk and spread.

This theory of the formation of the moon describes how a large body known as "Theia" impacted the early Earth causing a parts to be absorbed and parts to be thrown into orbit creating the moon.

Put the items in order of:

most dense (at the bottom) to

least dense (at the top).

  1. nut

  2. styrofoam peanut

  3. grape

  4. bottle cap

Density seperated the layers of the Earth. The more dense molten material went closer to the center of the planet.

The denser the element, the materials.

Humans can travel around and through the mantle.

LOL! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO THE CORE!

Asthenosphere affects your daily life, because it is what the tectonic plates sit upon.

How does this directly affect your experience on our planet?

Put the layers of the Earth in order.

(As if you were drilling to the center, so from the surface to the middle of the Earth)

  1. Continential Crust (less dense crust)

  2. Outer Core

  3. Inner Core

  4. Oceanic Crust (more dense crust)

  5. Lithosphere (less dense mantle)

  6. Asthenosphere (more dense mantle)

We rely on the Lithosphere the most out of all the Earth's layers. Ex For food, minerals, materials, etc.
