Eduard builds a model of Earth’s layers. His model is composed of two thin layers, approximately 1.25 cm thick each, that represent Earth’s crust and mantle. It then has one thick layer, approximately 4 cm thick, to represent Earth’s outer core. Finally, it has a solid metal ball to represent Earth’s inner core. How should Eduard modify his model to accurately represent Earth’s layers?
Eduard does not need to modify his model because it is already accurate.
Eduard should make the layer that represents Earth’s crust thicker.
Eduard should make the mantle thicker than all the other layers.
Eduard should replace the solid metal ball with clay to better represent the inner core’s composition.
