The layer directly under the Lithosphere?

The layer directly under the Lithosphere is the Asthenosphere. The Asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer of the Earth's mantle that allows for the movement of the tectonic plates above it. It is hotter and more ductile compared to the rigid Lithosphere.


What layer lies above the lithosphere?

The lithosphere is basically the part of Earth that we stand on. It consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle. Under the lithosphere is the mantle, then the outher and inner core. Over it? Technically, just the crust. Then...us.

What is under the lithosphere?

Below the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, a semi-solid layer of the upper mantle. This layer is partially molten, allowing for the movement of tectonic plates above it. The asthenosphere is hotter and more ductile compared to the rigid lithosphere above.
