Question

Out of the three layers of the earth’s interior, which occupies the maximum volume?

Options

• Crust

• Mantle

• Core

• All have equal volume

Answer 1

Mantle

Explanation:

The Earth’s interior has three layers: Crust, Mantle, and Core. The mantle occupies about 84% of the Earth’s volume, making it the largest layer by volume. The crust is only about 1%, and the core is smaller in volume compared to the mantle. Hence, the mantle occupies the maximum volume.
