Whats is the difference between a magnetosphere, magnetic field, and crustal magnetic field?

Answer:

Magnetosphere is that area around a planet where the magnetic field will deflect the solar wind. Magnetic field is the volume of influence of a magnetic source on objects (like ferro-magnetic materials, conductors, charged particles, light). Crustal magnetic field is any field that is generated by magnetic materials in the crust of a planet.
