geosphere - the solid part of Earth, including all the rocks, minerals, and physical structures that make up our planet's core, mantle, and crust., inner core - the solid, innermost layer of Earth, made up of iron and nickel, outer core - he liquid layer of Earth's core, located between the mantle and the inner core, mantle - the thick, mostly solid layer of rock that lies between the Earth's crust and its outer core, crust - the outermost, solid layer of Earth, the thinnest layer of the Earth, divided into continental crust (thicker, less dense) and oceanic crust (thinner, more dense), biosphere - the area of the earth where all life exists, hydrosphere - all the solid, liquid, and gas forms of water, atmosphere - the layer of gases that surround the planet, rock cycle - geological process that describes how the three main rock types continuously transform from one type to another over time, metamorphic rocks - are formed from rocks that are exposed to very high pressures and temperatures, igneous rocks - a type of rock formed when molten rock (magma or lava) cools and solidifies,, sedimentary rocks - rocks formed from deposition of sediments or pieces of once-living organisms, compaction - process of squeezing sediment particles together, cementation - process of gluing sediment particles together with minerals, magma - molten rock that is located beneath the Earth's surface, lava - molten rock that erupts and flows onto the surface through a volcano, weathering - process of breaking down rocks and minerals on the Earth's surface into smaller pieces (sediments), erosion - moving sediments from one place to another by natural agents like wind or water, deposition - the laying down of sediments from erosion,
