Hi. Some solids are malleable, such as gold, and move quite readily. Some solids, such as diamond, do not move very much at all.

Property of a solid that enables it to flow?

The property of a solid that enables it to flow is plasticity. Plasticity refers to the ability of a solid material to change shape permanently without breaking when subjected to stress. This property allows solids to deform and flow under certain conditions, usually through the movement of dislocations within the material.


What is the plasticity of earth?

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.

What is the plasticity of the mantle?

The mantle exhibits a degree of plasticity known as ductile deformation, which allows it to flow slowly over long periods of time. This plasticity is essential for the movement of tectonic plates and the convection currents within the Earth's mantle, which drive plate tectonics.

What is brain plasticity. Discuss the factors that influence plasticity?

Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new connections between neurons. Factors that influence plasticity include age (plasticity decreases with age), environmental enrichment (such as learning new skills or engaging in stimulating activities), physical exercise, nutrition, and certain experiences or stimuli. Additionally, genetic variations can also play a role in determining an individual's level of brain plasticity.
