The correct answer is "mostly iron." The composition of Earth's core consists primarily of iron, along with a smaller amount of nickel. This information can be obtained by studying the Earth's seismic waves and analyzing the behavior of these waves as they pass through the different layers of the Earth. Seismic studies have provided evidence of a solid inner core made mostly of iron, and a liquid outer core composed of molten iron-nickel alloy. Additionally, the presence of a magnetic field generated by the core's rotation is another indicator of the iron-rich composition.
