As the question uses the word mantle which is a compositional layer of the earth, then the answer is crust.
The asthenosphere is the layer of molten rock upon which the tectonic plates float.
Pieces of earth
Hope this helped. :D

Plates are floating on a mantle

The Asthenosphere.
boundaries and faults
Pieces of the lithosphere are known as tectonic plates. These plates slide slowly over the upper layer of the mantle known as the asthenosphere.
The upper part of the mantle called the asthenosphere is the layer on which the earth's lithosphere (crust plus uppermost rigid mantle) rides.This soft layer serves as support for the crust to float and move over time due to its partial suspension.
The plastic-like layer of the upper mantle is called the asthenosphere.

Those are called TECTONIC PLATES.
The mantle. Earth's layers are core, outer core, mantle, lithosphere, and crust.
The relatively soft layer of the upper mantle is called the asthenosphere
