What is the rigid zone above the asthenosphere that includes the crust and upper mantle?
The lithosphere
What is the zone of rigid brittle rock that the crust and the uppper layer of the mantle?
plat techtonce
The zone below the lithosphere it is more plastic than the lithosphere so it is easier to bend and move?
The zone below the lithosphere is the mantle. Convection currents occur here because of the magnetism in the Earth. It is somewhat plastic like.
What is the region where oceanic lithosphere sinks into the asthenosphere?
deep ocean trenches
What is the plastic zone below the upper mantle?
This is known as the asthenosphere. It lies below the lithosphere (composed of the upper mantle and crust).
What is the zone of earth beneath the lithosphere?
The asthenosphere.
What is one of the characteristics of the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere is a zone of weak material that exists below the lithosphere. The rock within this zone is easily deformed.
What is the plasticlike dense zone that lies beneath the lithosphere called?
The asthenosphere.
What is the rigid zone above the asthenosphere that includes the crust and upper mantle?
The lithosphere
What is the zone of rigid brittle rock that the crust and the uppper layer of the mantle?
plat techtonce
What solid layer between the inner mantle and the lithosphere?
I dont think there is a solid layer between the Lowwer Mantle and the Lithosphere. The only layer which lies in this region is the Asthenosphere, which is a Weak Zone and in Molten State.
What are the structural zone of earth?
Lithosphere, Asthenosphere, Mesosphere, outer core, inner core
The zone below the lithosphere it is more plastic than the lithosphere so it is easier to bend and move?
The zone below the lithosphere is the mantle. Convection currents occur here because of the magnetism in the Earth. It is somewhat plastic like.
What is the zone below the lithosphere in the earth?
"What is the zone below the lithosphere in the earth?"Asthenosphere!!!!Mrs. Mckinney's 9th Grade Earth Science Class - 3rd PeriodBCHSOwingsville, KY
What is the zone above the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere.
What the zone below the lithosphere it is more plastic than the lithosphere so it is easier to blend and move?
Perhaps the "asthenosphere" - it is difficult to understand what you are actually asking.
What is the weaker hotter zone beneath the lithosphere that allows for motion of earths rigid outer shell?
The asthenosphere
