Geology Unit Test – Study Guide – part 2
Use these notes and your notes as well as old quizzes to prepare for our
Unit Test. How well you do is directly connected to the time you spend
preparing!!
Layers of the Earth – Remember the RAP! !(crust and mantle, crust and

1. Label the following layers:
Lithosphere & Crust, Mantle, Asthenosphere, Outer Core, Inner Core.
Fill out the table below about each layer:
