Question

Explain how the parts of a hard-boiled egg, including the shell, correspond roughly to earth's layers.

Answer 1

The inside of the earth is layered something like an egg. Both have a thin, brittle shell. The crust of the earth is broken into pieces, like the cracked shell of a hardboiled egg. The mantle of the earth is like the egg white, and the core of the earth lies in the center, like the egg yolk.
