Facts:
The Geosphere is basically the insides of the earth so breaking it up into eight parts will be based on each section of it.
1. The crust is the top layer of the Earth, it consists of the water and land we see. It is a shell that lays atop or covers the Upper mantle piece.
2. The mantle is a layer between the crust and core, Earth's mantle is a rocky shell that is roughly 2,900km thick and is 84% of Earth's volume.
3. The Geosphere is the solid part of the Earth that consists of rock, soils and sediments on the surface of the Earth.
4. The core is the innermost layer of the Earth and is up to 6371km from the surface of the Earth, it consists of Nickel and Iron and are seen as main components of it.
5. The outside of the core is known as the molten core due to it mainly being liquid metal from the heat and the inner portion of the core known as the solid core.
6. Another name or term given to the Geosphere is called the lithosphere, depending on the definition they both mean the same thing but are still argued by scientists.
7. The Geosphere is in constant motion due to the tectonic plates. These plates are what causes earthquakes ,volcanoes to erupt and even tsunamis.
8.There are eight major tectonic plates making up the earth's geosphere. They are constantly moving, but usually only a few centimeters each year, this is known as continental drift.
