What part of the earth is directly below the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere is the upper part of the upper mantle.
What mechanical layer lies below the?
asthenosphere
What layer is directly below the lithosphere?
It is the asthenosphere.
Is the lithosphere and asthenosphere boundary above or below the Moho?
The boundary between the asthenosphere and the lithosphere is normally below the Moho (which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle). The exception to this is below mid-ocean ridges where the moho and the lithosphere / asthenosphere boundary are at the same depth.
What region of earth is directly below the lithosphere?

What is the the part of the mantle below the lithosphere?
Upper Mantle
What is part of mantle below the lithosphere called?

Earths lower mantle lies just below the?
Upper Mantle. This is also called the Asthenosphere
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 is the plastic portion of the upper mantle?
It is called the asthenosphere, the layer directly below the lithosphere.
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.
The layer on which the tectonic plates move is called the what?
It is called the asthenosphere, the layer of hot, ductile rock directly below the lithosphere.
Describe the asthenosphere?
Another name for the lower mantle is called the asthenosphere.
