📖 Your Story
You are a junior scientist at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) analyzing data from the latest Earth observation satellite. Your mission is to understand the structure of the Earth and the movement of tectonic plates to help predict geological changes.
What You'll Learn
- Identify the three main layers of the Earth: crust, mantle, and core.
- Understand the structure of the lithosphere and asthenosphere.
- Explain the theory of plate tectonics and identify major tectonic plates.
- Describe how convection currents in the mantle cause the movement of tectonic plates.
