Yes, the mantle is techincally a solid. If you want to get techincal, however, it is a viscoelastic material, meaning that over short invertvals it behaves as an elastic solid, but over the course of tens of thousands to millions of years it flows like a viscous liquid.
Lithosphere
The uppermost mantle and the crust makes the lithosphere.
The mantle of Mars is probably made of peridotite, like Earth's mantle.
The rock near the outer core is rigid not stiff

When rock in mantle cools, it sinks. When rock in mantle heats, it rises.

The mantle is composed of igneous rock.
No, it is hotter because it is closer to the inner core
