What is the partially molten layer of the mantle called?
The relatively soft layer of the upper mantle is called the asthenosphere
Does the asthenosphere occupies a majority of the mantle?
Yes. The asthenosphere is a part of the upper mantle.
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
What part of the mantle is part of the lithosphere?
asthenosphere
What part of the mantle is the asthenosphere found?
The asthenosphere lies in, and is the upper ductile part of, the mantle. It is the layer directly underneath the lithosphere; the layer composed of the crust and uppermost rigid mantle.
Is asthenosphere the lower mantle?
No. The asthenosphere is part of the upper mantle.

The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
What layer contains the lithosphere asthenosphere and mesosphere?
The layer containing the Lithosphere, Asthenosphere and Mesosphere is the Mantle. The Upper Mantle composes of the Lithosphere while the Lower Mantle composes the Asthenosphere.
What is the the part of the mantle below the lithosphere?
Upper Mantle
In which layer is the asthenosphere and the lithosphere located?
The mantle is the layer where asthenosphere and the lithosphere are located.
Most deformable layer of the Earth?
Asthenosphere
Which layer of the earth contains the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere is located in the upper mantle. The asthenosphere is below the lithosphere, the brittle outer shell of the Earth.
What is the solid plastic layer of the mantle beneath the lithosphere?
The plastic-like layer of the Earth's upper mantle directly below the lithosphere is called the asthenosphere.
What part of the mantle is part of the lithosphere?
asthenosphere
