Since there are no items provided, it is not possible to accurately determine whether each item exhibits fracture or cleavage.

The correct answers are:

1. By their thickness: Earth's layers can be defined based on their thickness. The planet can be divided into several layers, including the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core, each with different thicknesses.

3. By their physical properties: Earth's layers can also be defined by their physical properties. This includes factors such as density, rock type, and mechanical behavior. Different layers have distinct physical characteristics that help in categorizing them.
