While still solid, the asthenosphere is able to flow. The ability of a solid to flow is called plasticity. See "What's the matter?" for an activity to demonstrate plasticity. Since the asthenosphere is more liquid than the rest of the mantle, the broken lithosphere plates are able to "float" on it.
It is thick and does not flow fast, just like honey.
Solid
The asthenosphere is a flowing solid. It's sort of a liquid and a solid.
The Earth layer known as the lithosphere consists of the crust and uppermost mantle. There is no solid layer above the lithosphere.
The lithosphere is solid and does not flow, but is carried on top of the asthenosphere.
the rock that can flow like a liquid is a mantle because the mantle has two parts. The upper part is the solid rock. The solid rock of the mantle is part is the lithosphere. Below the solid rock, the mantle rock has the ability to flow like a liquid. Most of the mantle is made up of rock that can flow. Sanjida Ahmed 752/753

yes because it is a solid that can move
plasticity
according to scientists, the lithosphere is solid
Solid
The Mantle of the Earth.
That refers to a solid.
Lithosphere is solid part of earth .
It is the ability of the mantle (solid) to flow like liquid.
The Lithosphere is solid rock floating on molten rock.
