The asthenosphere, which is part of the upper mantle, can bend and flow like plastic due to high temperatures and pressures. This layer is partially molten and has the ability to undergo slow flow over long periods of time.
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.
Yes. The mantle is composed of the plastic mantle, or the upper part, which is partially molten. The stiffer mantle is under it. it is not as molten
The plastic-like part of the mantle is known as the asthenosphere. It is a semi-fluid layer located beneath the lithosphere, composed of partially molten rock material that allows for the movement of tectonic plates.
A portion of the upper mantle known as the asthenosphere.
asthenosphere!
Asthenosphere
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.
The uppermost part of the mantle with liquid and plastic properties is called the asthenosphere. It is a semi-fluid layer located beneath the rigid lithosphere that allows for the movement of tectonic plates.
The asthenosphere is the upper part of Earth's mantle. It is partially molten (plastic rheology) and mechanically detached from the lithosphere, which is mostly the Earth's crust (but also a little bit of upper mantle). The density of the upper mantle is your mom! (yo mamma!)
