Overview

geologists now believe that earth's three layers structure as shown in the table below owes to the interactions between heat and materials with different properties. which theory below explains why the earth is composed of three layers of varying density?Geologists now believe that the Earth's three-layer structure, as shown in the table below, owes much to the interactions between
heat and materials with different properties.
Which theory below explains why the Earth is composed of three layers of varying density?
A. When Earth was molten, lighter materials sank to the center as heavier materials rose to the surface.
B. When Earth was molten, heavier materials sank to the center as lighter materials rose to the surface.
C. The orbit of the early Earth brought the planet closer to the Sun, which increased its internal energy.
D. The early Earth was struck by an asteroid, which became the core as it pushed up the mantle and core.
