What will be an ideal response?


Differentiation produced a dense core, thick mantle, and low-density crust.
The young Earth was heavily bombarded in the debris-filled early Solar System.
Flooding by molten rock and later by water filled lowlands.
Slow surface evolution continues due to geological processes,including erosion.
