niether. The mesosphere is a layer of the atmosphere of earth, so it would be a gas. It is the coldest layer of the atmosphere reaching temperatures of -90 C.

by mjjm23: No, it is a layer of the earth!! that is wrong, but i don't know the answer!

THE ANSWER IS SOLID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE IN THAT AREA OF THE EARTH IN COMPARISON TO THE MATERIALS IN THE MESOSPHERE. THE MESOSPHERE IS SOLID. BUT YES THE MESOSPHERE IS ALSO THE NAME OF AN ATMOSPHERIC LAYER. BUT IN THE EARTH IT IS SOLID...

The material that deep mantle is hot enough that it would melt if it were at the surface, but it is kept solid by the enormous pressure on it. The mesosphere is plastic in nature; deforming on a manner rather like taffy. This allows it to flow on time scales of millions of years.

The entire mantle is solid rock, but it is hot and plastic so it can "flow" very slowly through a process called "plastic deformation".
