Answer:

Hi! The answer is this, The pressure on the inner core makes the inner core into a solid state, the temperature is hotter that the outer core but it's not hot enough to melt a substance do to the pressure squeezing down from all the layers above! :3

Explanation:

I took this test and got 100% on it so if you need help on other questions just let me know! <3

P.S: Make sure you put your answer in your own words!

Explanation:

From the studies done on seismic elastic waves, it has been discovered that the innermost core of the earth is a solid concentric layer. Seismic P and S waves can be propagated through solids but the s-waves are cut off in contact with a liquid medium. This is because s-waves are shear waves and fluids do not shear.

  • At the outer core, the s waves is cutoff and it reappears in the region of the inner core.
  • This shows that the inner core is solid.
  • The inner core is made up of iron and nickel with some other siderophiles.
  • At the inner core, the pressure is very great. Pressure here is about 350gigapascal.
  • This huge pressure compresses matter into solids despite the very high temperature.
  • Also, during the differentiation of the earth, the heavier minerals moves downward to the core due to their density. Metals in the core have density of about 13g/cm³.

Helga [31]
The very function, or job of CELL MEMBRANES is to protect the cell from it's surroundings, or in other words, to keep it safe. It controls the movement of substances in and out of cells and organelles, like a guard watching for suspicious activity and protecting something.

The cell membrane itself is a thin, flexible layer around the cells of all living things. It separates the inside of the cells from the outside of the cells.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer: The primary motor cortex for control of voluntary muscles is found in the precentral gyrus of the frontal lobes.

Explanations:

The primary motor cortex is one of the important brain areas involved in motor function. It is found in the precentral gyrus of frontal lobes. It control voluntary muscles and generate impulses needed for movement execution.

Voluntary muscles are muscles that we can control consciously or we can control them at will and we can choose when we want to use them. They are also refers to as skeletal muscles and are attached to bones. The are majorly use for locomotion.
