Verified Answer :

  1. The earths outermost layer
    This would be the Crust!

    2. The firm layer between the crust and the asthenosphere 
    The only option left that makes sense is "top level" altought the word is often used to refer to the Crust, too

    3. The metallic layer at the earth's center
    This is the core

    4. The semi solid layer between the top layer and the upper mantle
    This would be the asthenosphere!

    5. The hottest part of the mantle
    This would be the lower mantle - as the closer to the core, the warmer!

    6. The layer surrounding the inner core
    Immediately around the inner core is the outer core - as the name would suggest!

    7. The layer between the asthenosphere an lower mantle
    This is the Upper mantle!
