How does Earth's internal structure contribute to its magnetic field? A. The inner core is a permanent magnet made of iron, and the liquid
iron in the outer core aligns with that magnet's magnetic field.
B. Convection currents in the core generate a magnetic field, which is
strengthened by convection currents in the mantle.
C. The crust becomes magnetic because of radiation from the sun,
and the resulting magnetic field makes all of Earth's layers
magnetic
O D. Convection currents in liquid iron in the outer core generate an
electric current, which produces a magnetic field.

i think answer D( convection currents in liquid iron in the outer core generate an electric current , which produces a magnetic field)

1. efficient use of space

2. elimination of groundwater contamination

3. energy generation

4. lower carbon footprint

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
