Partially molten, plastic-like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earths mantle?
Partially molten, plastic like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earth's mantle is the Asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is mechanically weak and ductiley deforming region of the upper mantle.
Is the lower mantle solid or a liquid?
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...
What parts of earth's structure combine to form the lithosphere?
The layer just below Earth's crust is the mantle. It is the thickest layer, and is composed of flowing rock material. The solid upper part of the mantle joins with the crust to form the lithosphere
What is the earth's solid layer?
Inner core
What layer is directly beneath the Earth's crust is it a solid liquid or gas?
The Earth's crusts floats on the so-called upper mantle. The upper Mantle is predominantly solid but it can act like a fluid. You could compare it to soft plastic in that respect.

What is the solid plastic layer of earth?
Answer: the mantle :)
What is the solid plastic layer of earth on which tectonic plates move?
The asthenosphere.
Mantle State of matter?
The mantle layer of the Earth is said to be "solid-plastic". This means that it is a solid, but it can be moved.
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.
Part of earth's interior that flows like plastic?
Partially molten, plastic like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earth's mantle is the Asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is mechanically weak and ductiley deforming region of the upper mantle.
what layer of the earth is the thin solid outermost layer?
The thin, solid, outermost layer of the Earth is officially known as the crust.
What is the solid out layer of the earth?
The thin solid outermost layer above the mantle is the Crust.GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

What layer has a liquid and a solid layer?
The core is the chemical layer of the Earth with a liquid layer (the outer core), and a solid layer (the inner core).
What is the solid plastic layer of the mantle called?
lithsophere asthenosphere
