Show transcript
Earth is made up of four main layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. Together the upper mantle and the crust form Earth’s rigid outer layer: the lithosphere. The lithosphere is broken into large sections or tectonic plates. Most earthquakes and volcanoes occur at plate boundaries.
