Best Answer

The inside of Jupiter can be organized by layers. The outermost layer is thick clouds of hydrogen and helium, going many miles deep. There is then an ocean of hydrogen and helium covering the inner planet. Finally, there is the rocky core with a solid metal (possibly iron or nickel) sphere in the very center. The metal center is surrounded by magma in between itself and the rocky outside (crust).

Remember: Jupiter is a gas giant. The cloud and ocean layers cover about 7/8 of the planet. The rocky core is only 7.5 times the size of the entire Earth, seeing to it that Jupiter's gravity is 2.5 times as much as Earth's.
