Final answer:

The correct generalization about Earth's layers based on how they were formed is that temperature and density increase with depth.


Explanation:

The correct generalization about Earth's layers based on how they were formed is:

A. Temperature and density increase with depth.

As you move towards the Earth's core, both temperature and density increase. The geothermal gradient in the crust supports this concept, showing a temperature increase of about 30°C per kilometer depth.
